One of my favorite things about college was the public lectures and presentations by interesting people. During my years, I heard fascinating talks from scientists and politicians and entrepreneurs.
The university would hold these on a central building on campus and just throw open the doors for everyone. You didn't have to be a student or faculty member to attend these lectures. You just had to show up at the door.
One of my wife's favorite things about college were the free open-air classical concerts that the university held several times a year. We were dating then, and the two of us would often pack a picnic meal, spread out a blanket on the grass, and lay flat on our backs listening to the music.
Again, these concerts were completely free. All you had to do was show up; no affiliation with the university required.
At these events – and many others – I couldn't help but notice the wide variety of people there. There were college students, of course, and plenty of faculty, but there were also families with children, elderly folks, and blue-collar workers. It was a university event, but it was also a community event.
Even now, Sarah and I enjoy taking our family to offerings at local colleges and universities. There are free concerts, presentations, parades, children's exhibits, and other things going on all the time throughout the year.
So, how can you find out what's offered at your local college or university?
You can start by checking out their event calendar. The nearest sizeable university to me is Iowa State University, which offers a wonderful online event calendar. Many other universities offer very similar online functions. These make it incredibly easy to identify events on campus.
For example, on the calendar I linked to, there's a free concert, a bookbinding workshop, and a children's story time, and in the next couple of days there's a floral workshop, a lecture on plant breeding, and several art workshops. Some of the events have a cost, but many others are free. Plus, this list just comes from the summer months, when activities are relatively slow.
You might also want to check out the school's visitor's guide, which can clue you in to interesting exhibits and other permanent things worth seeing and visiting at the school. Many major colleges and universities offer an online visitor's guide, like this one.
Many universities have museums, art exhibits, walking tours, and countless other interesting things going on all the time.
Most universities and colleges also have special events and festivals where you'll find an enormous variety of free and interesting things to do.
Again, in the case of Iowa State, there's an annual festival called VEISHEA each April that includes a parade, tons of exhibits and demonstrations, a free food festival, and countless other things. We often spend an entire Saturday there without spending a dime while thoroughly enjoying ourselves.
If you live anywhere near a college or university, keep an eye on the campus. There's an abundance of free and fun things to do there, even if you're not involved with the school.
This post is part of a yearlong series called "365 Ways to Live Cheap (Revisited)," in which I'm revisiting the entries from my book "365 Ways to Live Cheap," which is available at Amazon and at bookstores everywhere.

Bainbridge, the county seat, is named for Commodore William Bainbridge, commander of the U.S.S. Constitution, "Old Ironsides." In 1540 Hernando de Soto crossed this region during his trek through Georgia. He found the Flint River a barrier which was eventually crossed by a hastily built ferry.

Patrick McDonnell, a 1979 graduate of the School of Visual Arts in New York City, started his career as an illustrator for several magazines, from The New York Times to Sports Illustrated to Reader's Digest. He also created 'Bad Baby', a monthly comic strip for Parents Magazine, which ran for 10 years.
He launched the strip called 'Mutts' in 1994, a few months before Bill Watterson discontinued his 'Calvin and Hobbes' strip. 'Mutts' contained so much quality that it easily took over the vacancy left by Watterson's popular strip. With 'Mutts', McDonnell not only succeeded in doing a newspaper comic in the tradition of 'Krazy Kat' and 'Peanuts', but also is a genius in spoofing modern art and pop-culture. 'Mutts' earned its rank among true "classics", and has won its creator many awards. It is syndicated by King Features to more than 600 newspapers in 20 countries.
As a cartoon historian, he also co-authored the book 'Krazy Kat: The Art of George Herriman' (Abrams 1986). In 2005, McDonnell embarked on a career as a children's book author.

What isn't on this list of signs of human trafficking? Has there ever been a vaguer term than abuse of vulnerability? It could describe being a parent or teacher easily. If informants are supposed to make a telephone call based on any of these signs – which is what this says – then heaven help the switchboards. No wonder Rescue-Industry groups have to ask for so much funding.
Lists of the so-called signs of being a victim of trafficking are now common, even placed in airports in hopes that victims may experience revelation and realise they need rescue. Such techniques demonstrate how the Rescue Industry institutionalises, submitting to funding guidelines written by government bureaucrats. The particular group that produced the list you see here have expanded from the US to the UK. It's a sort of globalisation of weak thinking.
There are young people now who have grown up surrounded by campaigning against trafficking, unaware there is conflict about how to define the term. Some want to dedicate energy to combating what is figured as a modern social evil. Some compare themselves with 19th-century anti-slavery advocates and feel outraged that anyone would question what they are doing.
The field gets critiqued regularly, and I don't always contribute when asked for comment. I regularly send a link to Dear Students of Sex Work and Trafficking (students can be taken as a general term for those who wish to inform themselves). I don't want to repeat the same ideas over and over when it's all easily findable on a website, and I don't like reducing complexity to bullet points. I also think everything has been said, and claims that insights are new are untrue. Online Editors routinely splash every banal keyword into headlines, sometimes without reference to what the item actually contains. Exaggeration has taken over.
Recent inquiries roused me to sketch out a few basic ideas that take in the history.
The Convention on Transnational Organised Crime was published in Palermo in 2000 by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime. Two protocols on human mobility were appended, one on trafficking, the other on smuggling. The process of defining these was long and conflictual and has been documented publicly. It was all supposed to pertain to undocumented migrants, a topic nearly always omitted from current commentary. I've written about these protocols more than once, particularly their genderedness and how sex is pointed to when the mobile people are women but not when they are men. The cover to my book Sex at the Margins used the image of mobility and human agency seen here.
After the Convention was published, the idea of trafficking began its ascent, and soon we who were interested in migration, sex work and labour policy realised it was useless for gaining equity or rights. The framework of the Convention is Crime – there is no fixing that. The assumption is this human mobility to work is fomented by criminals who use force and coercion against their victims – notions impossible to pin down because they vary infinitely amongst individuals according to momentary conditions. If you look at the footnotes opposing sides published on the language of the protocols you see how they argued about these keywords. Later some wag used the term sex trafficking, moving towards reductionism that is typical to the campaigning of moral entrepreneurs.
Behind this over-simplification and over-focus on sex lie real social inequalities and oppressions: migration policies that favour middle- and upper-class jobs, out-of-date notions of the formal economy and productive labour, young people who want to get away from home, job-seekers willing to take risks to make more money, laws that make commercial sex illegal, laws that make sweatshops illegal and there is more. To lump all this under a single term simply disappears the array of different situations, encourages reductionism and feeds into a moralistic agenda of Good and Evil. The term trafficking is an invention incapable of describing so many realities, and it does not help to reduce them all to two possibilities – the Free vs the Enslaved, the Autonomous vs the Coerced. In the case of those who sell sex it does not help to reduce them to Sex Workers vs Victims of Trafficking.
I am asked what better language would be, but the issue is not language, as though everything might be fixed by changing the words. The framework setting out the problems is good for nothing but policing. I suggest addressing specific injustices on their own terms. For example
-If the subject is runaway teenagers who don't want to live with their parents or go to school and don't have money or job-skills, then talk about that.
-If the subject is people who took a job that didn't turn out the way they expected but they need the money so don't leave it, then talk about that.
-If the subject is migrants who crossed borders with false papers so they are not legal to work at any job, then talk about that.
And so on. Get down to specifics, deal with real situations, stop arguing about ridiculous abstractions. Social policies do not have to be so dumb.

The Japanese elections just took place, and I'm excited to say the challengers have won in a landslide.
I've had two posts in the last month explaining the very real possibility of Japan having a new government before Copenhagen which aspires to much stronger emissions targets than the current one. The first explored the possibility of Japan's current Liberal Democratic Party losing to the Japanese Democratic Party, and wondered whether the challengers had stronger positions on emissions. The old government's commitment of a mere 8% below 1990 levels certainly didn't move any other countries along in raising their targets. The new government's position going into the election was 25% below 1990 levels by 2020. The second post focused on the fact that the positions the challengers held on clean energy, stronger emissions targets, and green jobs were polling really well. Based on today's election results, it looks like the poll wasn't far off.
So, why would Japan committing to 25% by 2020 below 1990 levels at Copenhagen be important? After all, the buzz words always thrown around are "China, India, US". For one, Japan has the second largest economy in the world behind the United States. At the same time, they are the 5th largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world, and were only recently passed by India who is number 4. There is gridlock on all sides. I might be wrong, but with the exception of the UK indicating going higher than 30%, I think Japan's new target would be the second strongest in the world. A big problem is developed countries not coming even close to the 25-40% range necessary not just if you follow the science, but based on what would also help move developing countries along as well. If Japan can help ease gridlock amongst the richer countries and the G8, developed countries might set their sights higher.
There's one more big reason as well, and this is also just a hunch by myself, although in college I've taken quite a few courses on Asia and I feel like I know it pretty well. It's no secret that China and Japan have a pretty rough history. If I put myself in China's shoes, yes the United States committing to stronger targets would be the most influential, but it would make sense for Japan to be the second most. It wouldn't seem fair to China that their rival who historically has emitted a lot more than them, and who has benefited decades earlier from incredible economic growth in part because they were able to freely burn fossil fuels…can commit to such a poor target while China has to cap emissions soon.
On top of this, China knows the benefits of clean energy for economic development, and they want to dominate the global market in this sector. Some have said the best way for the US to convince China to force North Korea to give up its nuclear program is to arm Japan with nuclear weapons because China would go absolutely ballistic if their largest regional rival became a nuclear power. What would the response of China be if Japan challenged them to a clean energy race where the winner dominates the world's largest 21st century market? I think we're about to find out.
"Tetsuro Fukuyama, also the Democrats' deputy policy chief, said the party's 2020 target to cut emissions by 25 percent below 1990 levels would impose regulations to curb emissions and incentives for energy conservation, increased use of renewable energy and development of green technology."
"The minus 15 percent target versus 2005 is equivalent to a cut of only 8 percent below 1990 levels."
"It just doesn't go far enough," Fukuyama said. "How can they dare to persuade China and India with that number?"

Hampden Township-based pizza shop Al's of Hampden — known for its vast craft beer selection, including its own Pizza Boy Brewing line — has started construction on a 9,600-square-foot restaurant and brewery in Pyramid Business Park.
The new location, which is not far from Al Kominski's current shop on Valley Road, will provide five times the seating for the restaurant side of the business and more than quadruple the number of beer taps.
Al's sells more than 350 varieties of beer. Pizza Boy Brewing began in 2011 as a way for Kominski to supplement microbrew demand, which continues to grow and has prompted other restaurants to get in on the act. He began selling craft beers in 2008.
The restaurant is across the intersection with Wertzville Road opposite the Cumberland Technology Park. The current facility is surrounded by construction of stores being built by Weis Markets and Giant Food Stores.
Kominski said the new location should be ready by April.
"It's going to be a big step for us," said Kominski, a Hazleton native who founded Al's of Hampden in 2002.
Millersburg-based Mid Penn Bank is financing the project. COR Construction Services Inc., located in Silver Spring Township, is the general contractor.

WASHINGTON June 16, 2011- Broadband Breakfast gathered leading experts Tuesday to discuss a performance right for broadcasting at the June installment of the Intellectual Property Breakfast Club. Under current copyright regulations, when a song is played on terrestrial radio the writer of the song gets paid fee called a broadcast royalty. The singers and musicians that perform the song, however, get no such payment. Performance royalties are paid to singers from web-based radio stations along with cable companies that offer music channels.

A new project
With the Missed Connections book wrapped up and off at the printer, I have the beginnings of a new project to share with you.
For now I'm calling it Drawn From My Father's Adventures.
I have always loved my father's stories, the grim ones from boarding school during the war, the exciting ones from being the son of a spy, the exotic and bizarre and beautiful ones from traveling to unpronounceable places long before there were guide books. These stories formed pictures in my head over the years and I have finally convinced him to write them down so I can get them out of my head and onto the page.
I live in Brooklyn, New York and my father lives in rural Australia, so it's a long distance collaboration. I'm awfully excited. Come and have a look.
ps This doesn't mean Missed Connections is over...

St. John the Baptist Parish Sheriff deputies examine a car with bullet holes Thursday after two sheriffs were killed and two wounded in two shooting incidents in St. John the Baptist Parish, west of New Orleans, La.
Updated 6:45 p.m. ET:
Authorities pledged in a news conference to bring to justice those responsible for shooting two Louisiana sheriff's deputies to death and wounding two others in two separate but related incidents Thursday morning.
St. John the Baptist Parish Sheriff Mike Tregre said that five suspects are in custody and that the Louisiana State Police have taken over the investigation.
"Our goal is not expediency in trying to rush to conclusions. We're looking for facts and we're going to build on those facts," state police Col. Mike Edmonson said at the Thursday afternoon news conference.
Deputy Brandon Nielsen of the St. John the Baptist Parish Sheriff's Office had been with the department for two years and was assigned to the traffic division.
The first shooting occurred around 5 a.m. in the parking lot of a Valero refinery in St. John the Baptist Parish, 35 miles west of New Orleans near the Mississippi River.
A deputy was working an off-duty traffic detail at the refinery when someone opened fire on his police vehicle, injuring him.
Moments later, police received a call from someone describing a speeding vehicle fleeing the scene of the shooting. Deputies tracked the vehicle to the Riverview Trailer Court, a trailer park, and began questioning residents.
Police handcuffed one suspect outside a trailer and knocked on its door. A man with a dog answered, and police noticed another man inside fully clothed under a blanket.
After the two men came outside with deputies for questioning, a third man jumped out of a trailer and began firing with an assault weapon.
Deputy Jeremy Triche was assigned to the canine division and was a 4-year veteran of the sheriff's department.
"Another person exited that trailer with an assault weapon and ambushed my two officers," Tregre said.
Authorities identified the deputies killed as Brandon Nielsen, 34 and Jeremy Triche, 27. The wounded officers are Michael Scott Boyington, 33, and Jason Triche, 30. Officials have not said whether it was Boyington or Jason Triche who was injured in the first shooting.
Tregre said the two Triches are related in some way but was not sure how.
Earlier, officers from nearby parishes assisted in the search for the suspects.
Authorities are still trying to piece together what happened and what led to the shootings.
"Law enforcement is a profession where one day you may take a life, save a life or give your own, and today was one of those days," Tregre told reporters.
Tregre, who took over the sheriff's office just 45 days ago, the called it "one of the hardest days of my life so far."
Nielsen and Jeremy Triche are the first St. John the Baptist Parish deputies to die in the line of duty since 2006, according the sheriff's website.

By Martinne Geller
LONDON, Oct 1 (Reuters) - Nestle hinted on Tuesday it was getting closer to disposing of bad brands and shaking up its portfolio to deal with businesses that have underperformed for too long.
The company's chief executive Paul Bulcke told investors Nestle had drawn up lists of businesses that could be fixed and those that could not.
"Divestitures, we're going to have some," Bulcke said. "We want to be in business, not in agony."
"The shortlists are there and now the action has to come. The timelines have to be wise, but action will come," he told a presentation to investors, stressing that managing the portfolio was a top priority.
Without identifying specific brands, Bulcke said some had been "sailing under the radar screen for too long without being part of the party."
Suggesting the process is already under way, sources told Reuters last week that Nestle's PowerBar energy bars were up for sale.
Nestle's performance in recent quarters has lagged some peers, in part because of the company's mammoth size and multiple brands, from Gerber baby food to Perrier water to Nescafe coffee to name only a few. The company posted 92.2 billion Swiss francs in annual sales last year and has 203.81 billion Swiss francs ($225.16 billion) in market capitalization.
Bulcke said other priorities included structural efficiency and scaling back capital expenditure. Moving ahead, Nestle's capital expenditure should be around 4 percent to 5 percent of sales, he said, below 2012's 5.8 percent.
After consumer goods rival Unilever warned on Monday of a sharper slowdown in its emerging markets, Bulcke acknowledged that sales in the region were slower than before, but added that growth was more stable than before. A degree of slowdown was healthy, he said, given that the double-digit rates in some markets, like China, was unsustainable.
Bulcke declined to comment on Nestle's plans regarding its closely-watched 30 percent stake in L'Oreal beyond repeating that all options were on the table. Restrictions on selling the stake expire in April.
Nestle shares were down 0.6 percent at 62.85 euros at 1122 GMT.

First Steps
- 1 Starting iMacros
- 2 The iMacros Graphical User Interface
- 3 Recording Macros
- 4 Playing Macros
- 5 Editing Macros
- 6 Next Steps
Starting iMacros
iMacros is distributed as a browser add-on for Firefox, Chrome, and Internet Explorer. Two of the commercial editions of iMacros (Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition) also include the standalone iMacros Browser, a derivative of IE with a command-line interface.
This article primarily covers interaction with the iMacros Browser, however, the concepts and interface are fairly consistent among all the different versions of iMacros. Throughout this Wiki, iMacros commands and functionality are are associated with browser icons ( ) to designate their applicability to a particular browser.
Internet Explorer Plug-in
After installing the software, a new iMacros icon appears on the command bar of Internet Explorer (IE).
If you have already customized your IE command bar, you might need to manually add the icon or reposition it so it's visible. Please see this relevant FAQ for more on how to do this.
You can also start iMacros for IE by selecting 'iMacros Web Automation' from the IE Tools menu.
The iMacros Browser (Advanced and Enterprise Editions)
To start the iMacros Browser, select the program from the Windows Start Menu, double-click the icon on your desktop, or navigate to the file "imacros.exe" (typically in C:\Program Files\iOpus\iMacros) and double-click it using Windows Explorer.
To become familiar with iMacros run the "FillForm" demo macro that is automatically installed. This demonstrates the basic features of iMacros in a straightforward way. It navigates to a test form, fills the form and submits it, then returns to the iMacros Website.
The iMacros Graphical User Interface
We have invested a lot of effort in making the Graphical User Interface of the iMacros Browser and the Internet Explorer add-on as intuitive as possible. This section explains the basic elements.
The Main Window
The main window consists of three parts: the menu and toolbar at the top, the iMacros sidebar on the left, and the browser window on the right. Web pages are displayed in the browser window using a tabbed interface just like other browsers. You control iMacros with the elements in the sidebar on the left.
The iMacros Sidebar
The iMacros sidebar is divided into two parts. The top half displays a tree view of all your macros when iMacros is stopped, and the current macro code when you are playing or recording a macro. Only files with an .iim or .iimx (obfuscated macros) extension in the Macros folder are recognized by iMacros. The Macros folder is specified in the Path settings of the iMacros Options. The default macro folder is located in My Documents under iMacros\Macros.
The lower half of the sidebar consists of three tabs: Play, Record, and Edit. As the names suggest, the Play tab contains controls for playing macros, the Record tab contains controls for recording macros, and the Edit tab contains controls for editing macros, changing options, and getting help.You can auto-hide the sidebar by "un-pinning" it from the main window (just click on the thumb-pin icon to pin or unpin the sidebar), or you can move the sidebar outside the main window to a "floating" position, or dock it on the right, if you prefer. You can also hide the toolbar from the View menu. The sidebar needs to be open in IE for iMacros to function.
Recording Macros
What's a Click Mode?
It is important to note that the primary way iMacros records your interaction with a web page is by recording your mouse clicks on the various web page elements. iMacros records these clicks as well as text entered into input fields on web forms and translates them into TAG commands. If you are entering and selecting values in a series of fields on a web form, you need to navigate to each field with the mouse and click into/on that field.
Note: Navigating through fields with the keyboard (i.e. using the TAB key) is not supported and will not be recorded.
Before recording, it is important to understand the different modes of recording that you can use. This is also known as the Click Mode. The three main click modes are Automatic, Expert (Use complete HTML tag), and DirectScreen. To select a click mode, use the ClickMode menu item or open the Click Mode Dialog from the main toolbar or Record tab.
iMacros attempts to choose the best recording options (recommended in most cases for recording on HTML websites). In the automatic mode iMacros looks at the different attributes an element has (such as ID, NAME, Text, HREF, etc.) and selects the one attribute it thinks fits best (for details, please see the "For advanced users" description). Note that the automatic mode never switches to Expert or DirectScreen mode. If you need these recording modes, please select them manually.
This mode is for advanced users: iMacros does not select just one attribute as in the automatic mode, but instead creates a TAG command that consists of all attributes of the clicked HTML element. The purpose is to give the user a quick overview of all of the element's attributes. Typically the user will use such a TAG command as a starting point, and then delete the attributes that should not be used. Often this is more convenient than building such a TAG command manually.
iMacros for Firefox provides this mode for identifying elements by their position on the web page. This can be useful if the name and URL of the item you want to click on changes dynamically from visit to visit. It should also be used if the web page element is embedded in JavaScript and iMacros can not find the recorded name during replay because it was created "on the fly" by JavaScript. For more information on this mode, see the CLICK command.
This is the ultimate solution if everything else fails. It simulates standard mouse clicks and movement within the browser window. This feature works with all web pages. For non-html elements such as Flash or Silverlight, you must use the DirectScreen mode. DirectScreen is only available in the iMacros Browser and iMacros for IE commercial editions.
Image Validation
Image validation (IMAGECLICK) combines the power of DirectScreen with computer vision. To use it, open the Image Validation Wizard. For more details please see Image Recognition.
Changing Modes
In most cases you will record your macros using just one click mode, but you aren't limited to just one click mode per macro. In fact, you can mix the modes in a single macro by changing the click mode while you are recording! This is useful if you encounter problems while attempting to record one or more elements on a web page: simply switch to a different click mode and try clicking the element again.
You may also have to change click modes if you notice that your recorded commands are not playing back successfully. In this case try selecting a different click mode and re-record your macro.
To record a macro
To start recording a macro, select one of the following methods:
- Click the "Record" button on the Record tab of the iMacros sidebar
- Click the "Record" button on the toolbar.
- Press Ctrl+F5.
Now simply perform whatever tasks you wish to record, such as surfing to web sites, filling out forms, making a test order on your e-commerce site or any other task of your choosing.
After you have finished recording press "Stop". The current recording is automatically saved as a macro named "#Current". Press "Save Macro As..." to save it as a different name, or right-click the macro in the macro list and select "Rename".
Hints for successful recording
- Select elements to record by clicking them with the mouse (don't use the TAB key to navigate through fields).
- During recording do not use your browser's Back or Forward button or change the address line. Use the buttons supplied by iMacros instead (iMacros Browser and IE add-on only).
- Recording "Clicks". If a macro generates an error during replay you can experiment by selecting the link recording option (Click Mode) manually from the dialog after clicking Click Mode.
- Because the iMacros recording language is fully documented it is easy to edit and "tweak" the macro manually after recording!
- The iMacros Standard and Enterprise Edition licenses include free Silver Level tech support, so our support team is ready to help you with your project and any recording issues that you might encounter.

Note: The relationship between a recorded TAG command and the actual web page HTML code is fully documented. There is also an example page to test the iMacros recording. Advanced users can use this documentation to manually created TAG commands based on the HTML source of the website and/or have a program generate the iMacros macro commands.
Playing Macros
To play a macro, first select the macro in the macro list and then choose one of the following methods:
- Click the "Play" button on the toolbar.
- Click the "Play" button or on the Play tab of the sidebar.
- Simply double-click the macro in the list.
- Press the F5 key.
Controlling playback speed
There are two different options that affect the speed at which macros are replayed. These can be set in the General tab of the Options dialog as well as within the macro with the !REPLAYSPEED variable.
The first option is the replay speed, which can be set to three different values:
- FAST: the macro is replayed at maximum speed (Recommended in most cases).
- MEDIUM: iMacros waits for 0.25s between each command.
- SLOW: iMacros waits for 1s between each command.
The second option is to add timing information during recording (DirectScreen click-mode only). If the "Add timing information" checkbox is checked in the Click Mode Dialog, then WAIT statements are automatically included in the macro. Thus, during replay these WAIT statements slow down the macro playback.
Of course, you can also always manually add WAIT statements to your macro to further control the speed.
Errors during replay
We work hard to make iMacros as "intelligent" as possible, but it still is not as smart as you. If an error occurs during replay it is mostly due to a "tricky" web page in which one of the automatic suggestions of the iMacros Recorder failed. In almost all cases re-recording the macro with different settings or manually editing the macro solves the problem. For recording tips please see the Recording section and for information on how to edit your macro go to the Editing Macros section.

Tip: If you want to prevent the blue frame from being drawn around tagged elements during playback, add the following statement to your macro:
Editing Macros
(Related example macro: FillForm)
All recorded macros are stored as a plain text file with the an .iim extension in the folder specified by the "Folder Macros" setting on the Path tab of the Options dialog. The default macro folder is located in My Documents under iMacros\Macros.
You can manually edit and tweak the macros using any text editor you like, for example Notepad, which is shipped with the Windows operating system by default.
To open a macro, first select the macro in the macro list and then choose one of the following methods:
- Click the "Edit Macro" button on the toolbar.
- Click the "Edit Macro" button on the Edit tab of the sidebar.
- Right-click the macro in the list and select "Edit macro".
- Press the F9 key.
The editor specified by the "External editor" setting on the Path tab of the Options dialog (iMacrosEditor by default) will open and display the macro - in this example we chose the FillForm demo macro:
As a simple edit step, let's change the content of a form text field now. To change the Name below from "Tom Tester" to "Dr. A. Award" locate the TAG command that contains "Tom Tester" and change is as shown below:
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEXT FORM=NAME:f1 ATTR=NAME:n1 CONTENT="Tom Tester"
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEXT FORM=NAME:f1 ATTR=NAME:n1 CONTENT="Dr. A. Award"
If the value of the CONTENT parameter contains spaces, you must either:
- Enclose the value in double-quotes
- Replace all spaces in the text with <SP> and substitute all newlines with <BR>, e.g. CONTENT=Dr.<SP>A.<SP>Award. (Related forum post).
After you save the changes to the file, iMacros will immediately apply them during the next replay of the macro.

RIPTON — Addison County officials are anxiously awaiting word from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the White House on whether Ripton, Middlebury and Lincoln will be awarded aid for repairs to roads, culverts and other public infrastructure damaged by a major storm last month.
Gov. James Douglas, a Middlebury Republican, formally requested the federal disaster declaration from the FEMA on July 1. The request is for declarations in Addison and Franklin Counties.
Tim Bouton, a senior emergency planner with the Addison County Regional Planning Commission, was one of several state and local officials who gathered in Middlebury on July 2 to go over a final tally of storm-related damage. Bouton said Vermont's total estimated damage from the June 14-16 storm is $960,000.
That $960,000 means that Vermont falls $40,000 short of the $1 million threshold required to qualify for a "federal disaster declaration" from FEMA, a declaration that would funnel in grant money from the nation's capital to cover up to 75 percent of the storm-related damage.
Still, Bouton and other officials said Vermont could qualify for aid based on a per-capita calculation of the damage. On that score, Vermont would qualify, with a per capita damage assessment of $1.24.
In essence, the declaration hangs in the balance at a time when dollars are tight and the feds are processing massive aid requests from the Midwest (major flooding) and California (fires).
"It's unknown what the response will be from Washington," said Bouton, who added the all-important verdict is likely to be handed down within the next two or three weeks. "We are hoping that with help from our congressional delegation, we will be successful."

SALISBURY — On a sunny Tuesday morning, Karen Rockow and her cousin John Marlin sat on the porch of the North Cove Cottage's front office — a red house hunkered down beside Lake Dunmore Road among a smattering of cozy white cottages.
"It's just a fantastic place," said Rockow, a 59-year-old Brooklyn native who has been vacationing at the lake since she was four years old.
She sat facing the water, looking out at a lone paddleboat on the cove and two small girls swimming at the water's edge — imagining, perhaps, the north cove of Lake Dunmore as it was 50 years ago. Rockow, whose family bought these cottages in 1958, is celebrating the business's 50th anniversary this year — an especially notable occasion for a business Rockow believes is the oldest group of cottages under continuous ownership on the lake.
"We're really a relic," she said. "These are retro vacations."
Rockow made her first trip to the lake in 1954 in the two-tone, green-and-white Buick that her parents bought that year. The car — a lemon, Rockow said, that knew the inside of every Buick repair shop from Atlantic City north — ferried the family to Vermont for that first summer vacation. The weather was gorgeous and the accommodations filthy — and her family, Rockow said, was hooked.
They spent the next several summers returning to the lake, pleading with the owners of the cottage that now serves as the business's front office to sell them the house.
They succeeded at long last, and soon also owned the half-dozen cottages south of the main office. Rockow's parents set to fixing up their little resort, painting the cottages and hauling furnishings from New York. Motels were still a novelty in those days, Rockow said, and her parents caught the bug early, throwing themselves into the work of upkeep and hospitality.
MIDDLEBURY — Josh Phillips had been looking for an opportunity to return to his home state of Vermont and continue his work in the field of land conservation.
He got his wish on both counts last month when he began his job as the new executive director of the Middlebury Area Land Trust (MALT).
Phillips, 31, takes over for former MALT leader Gioia Kuss, who stepped down last year, and Robin Scheu, who had been heading the organization on an interim basis.
Until recently, Phillips worked as director of preservation services at Preservation Maryland, a nonprofit conservation organization in Baltimore. While there, Phillips administered grants, created a preservation easement program and did most of the organization's local advocacy outside of the city of Baltimore — namely, 23 counties.
After four years with Preservation Maryland, Phillips and his wife, Julie, found themselves on the move this spring. Julie Phillips, a physician, had been offered a fellowship at Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington. The couple decided it would be a good move, so Josh Phillips began to look for employment opportunities in the Green Mountain State, where he had grown up and gone to school. Phillips is a graduate of the University of Vermont's historic preservation master's program.
He was ecstatic to land the top job at MALT.
"I grew up in Milton, and my family is in Benson, so I was very familiar with Addison County," Phillips said. "This job really represents an opportunity for me to combine my interests in environmental conservation, open space preservation, sustainable agriculture and cultural/historic preservation. All those things come together in a community land trust, so I was excited that this opportunity was available."

Earlier this year, both The New York Times and The Washington Post confirmed that the Obama administration authorized the CIA to kill American-born, Yemeni-based Islamic cleric, Anwar al-Awlaki.
Several people I admire and respect—and who are far more versed in the legal aspects of the "war on terror"—have already weighed in on whether the U.S. Government is authorized to kill U.S. terror suspects abroad, so I defer to those experts.
But what's interesting is that the U.S. Government has killed "many Westerners, including some U.S. passport holders" in Pakistan's tribal areas dating all the way back to the Bush administration, according to Bob Woodward's new book.
Jeff Stein over at WaPo's SpyTalk writes that according to Woodward, on November 12, 2008, then-CIA Director Gen. Michael Hayden disclosed the killings to Pakistani president Asif Ali Zardari during a meeting in New York. At the meeting, Zardari allegedly said, "Collateral damage worries you Americans. It does not worry me."
It now appears that two human rights groups are challenging the legality of the Obama Justice Department's right to kill U.S. citizens abroad. Will these groups now do the same with former Bush officials, too?

On one hand, having a local name on the state ballot for governor could be considered an honor – what a power trip to see your name alongside some of the state's big-wigs. And, while we have to give a local teacher, George Pobuda, credit for the gumption he showed in doing something about his political concerns, our praise ends there. In no way, shape or conceivable form should he have considered running for governor.
His is definitely a grassroots campaign and he takes pride in admitting he's just a "common person," not "a professional politician." ("Who is to say that any common woman or man in Wisconsin doesn't have good issues that should be listened to," he asks.)
But to think he thinks that getting a couple thousand signatures on a set of nomination papers and discussing some issues on a web site make him qualified to hold this office makes us more than queasy. His only political experience is one term on the Bradley Town Board a couple of years ago. And now he wants to be governor!
George has whined on a couple of occasions that it's difficult to get his name out and that the press is ignoring him. Well, George, one big reason could be that you're impossible to contact. Having an unlisted phone number doesn't impress us as being someone who wants to open up the lines of communication. You maintained an unlisted number when you represented us on the Bradley Town Board, and you do so yet today. In fact, that press you complain about (both Milwaukee and Madison based) has had to contact our newspaper office to find out how to reach you. We have had to tell them that we'd call you, give you their number and then have you call them back. Your response? An apology to us for the inconvenience.
And then there was that first forum in Milwaukee that you skipped because you hadn't been getting much sleep at night and Milwaukee was too far to drive.
George's first, and perhaps only, campaign promise is that, if elected, he will have an open forum meeting once a month so "people will have a direct contact with me to state what issues are important to them. People and government need to work together!" We can only wonder if those who attend would find requirements similar to the first forum he held in Bradley: to come with solutions to their questions and only present comments in written form because he wouldn't be taking notes.
George your naivety shows in everything you do.
It looms on your web site where you (just weeks before the election) have posted issues of concern and your stance. Under "Funding education and stopping increasing property taxes" you only talk about needing more respect for the elderly, some of whom, you note, were in the Depression and World War II and "shouldn't have to continually make decisions about paying for food, prescription drugs, health care, place of residency and rising property taxes."
Under "Campaign finance reform," your answer is to have the state purchase an easy access web site where all candidates can state their issues – the entire problem solved, you suggest, for a mere $10 a month. People who don't have computers can get help from their librarian, you note. Oh, and we must not forget that all-important line of communication with the candidates, via a direct e-mail button.
And, under "Equal pay for equal work!" you simply state, "Hi, Vicki."
George's one and only press release we've seen contains the announcement that, with consultation from his physician, he's going on a hunger strike from Sept. 3-10. No reason is provided on what this hopes to accomplish or even why that attention-seeking method was chosen. (We hope it's not your commentary on the food served at the school district where you teach!) Well, George … we're going to boycott buying pickles because we think college tuition is too high. Tit for tat; and it makes just as much sense.
As we said, Tomahawk may be reflected on the Sept. 10 primary, but we shudder at the thought and hope very few make the connection.
Hope no one notices …
We encourage you to respond to our opinions. We will try to make an editorial or column available for discussion each week.

I always find it amazing that no matter how hard developer makes a video game that someone, somewhere will manage to accomplish the impossible. Whether its finishing Blast Corps or finishing the last level of Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! with a perfect score I am always continuously amazed at the level of human accomplishment when it comes to video games.The latest inhuman achievement to appear in a video game is finishing the attempting to play Through the Fire and Flames by Dragonforce, which is unlocked once you complete Guitar Hero 3. Its no shocker that this is the hardest song ever put in a Guitar Hero game but after seeing this song in action one has to wonder ... what were they thinking? I've seen impossible video game tasks before but this just seems, I don't know, beyond impossible. The song is over eight minutes long and you have to play so fast that your guitar sounds like its producing a steady stream of machine gun fire. But yet someone has managed to finish this song on Expert level.

Sno Daze Begins At Game Tonight;
Princess Will Reign Over Festivities
by Carolyn Nepstad
Reigning over the three day Sno Daze festi-vities
will be one of the four candidates for Sno
Princess. Tonight at the half-time coronation cere-mony
during the Bethel - Pillsbury basketball game
the .Sno Princess will be crowned.
Who will be the reigning Sno Princess ? Vying
for the crown are sophomores Carol Bausman and
Carol Young and freshmen Nancy Mattson and
Ellen Polk.
One of last year's candidates for Freshman
Sweetheart, Carol Bausman comes from Soudan,
Minn. She serves as vice-treasurer of the Bodien
dorm council. Elementary education is her major.
From Spring Valley, Cal., comes candidate
Carol Young. A registered nurse, Carol is com-pleting
studies toward her B.S. degree in public
health nursing. Her desire is to go to the mission
Having graduated from Minnehaha Academy,
Nancy Mattson is continuing her education with
plans of elementary teaching. Bethel has offered
the opportunity to sing in the college choir and in
the girls' ensemble. A native Minnesotan, Nancy's
home is Minneapolis.
Often seen with her "uke" and known by her
characteristic laugh, Ellen Polk came to Bethel
from Waukegan, Ill. Sharing in the committee
work of the freshman class, debating, and report-ing
for the CLARION are among her many inter-ests.
To the fanfare of trumpets, the four candidates
will be escorted to the platform by the men's quar-tet
who will also honor them in song. Comprising
the musical foursome are Dick Abrahamson, Dick
Benert, Larry Jamison, and Denny Kolbrek. The

On 73rd Annual
AHA Assembly
• • . Relays, Log Sawing
Sports Scheduled Saturday At Como
This account was written by Roy
C. Dalton, associate professor of
history, who attended the annual
meeting of the AHA. A further
report will be made by him to the
history and political science group
at Bethel at a meeting tentatively
scheduled for Feb. 12—ed.
More than 2000 historians from
throughout the United States at-tended
the three-day convention of
the American Historical Associa-tion,
held at the Mayflower hotel
in Washington, D.C., on Dec. 28-
30. By charter definition the AHA
is a body "for the promotion of
historical studies, the collection
and preservation of historical
manuscripts, and for kindred pur-poses
in the interests of American
history and of history in America."
At the annual meeting, of which
this was the seventy-third, numer-ous
papers were read and discuss-ed
at morning, luncheon, after-noon,
and dinner sessions. As a
number of papers are being read
and discussed in simultaneous ses-sions
it is impossible for any one
delegate to attend more than a
small percentage of the sessions,
generally chosen according to his
own interests and field of special-ization.
Two of the papers were particu-larly
suggestive for the history
and political science faculty and
students of Bethel college. At a
joint session with The Conference
on Slavic and East European His-tory,
John M. Thompson, of the
Social Science research council,
stressed the need for improved
teaching of Russian history and
understanding of the entire non-

Only two more days until Sat-urday
and I can hardly wait! You
too ? Why the puzzled look on a
few faces ? You don't know what's
going on?
Here's the scoop. At 9 o'clock
sharp be out in the center of cam-pus
for a dog sled race. Where
did we get the dogs, you're won-dering?
Well, we . . . Maybe I
should make you wait and see,
but be there or you'll hate your-self.
Especially when all the
screaming will wake you up any-way.
From the dog sled race we'll
pile into cars or go by ankle ex-press
to Como Lake for the skat-ing
competition. Besides the speed
races and the relay races there
will be figure skating and even
Alt 10:30 we'll migrate to Como
Hill for Bethel's favorite sport-traysliding!
Girls, I feel compelled
to warn you that if you don't
want to disappoint that he-man
of yours, you better be sure to be
there. He is going to have a
chance to show off his strength
in a log sawing contest.
A quick warm lunch back at
school is the next thing on the
agenda. 'Phis is to thaw out and
give added strength for the big
afternoon of hockey. Four teams
made up of members from the
four classes will compete. Two
judges will make things fair and
exciting, One will be Dick Westby,
a seminary student and an excel-lent
skater with a background in
hockey. (His two brothers are
presently playing hockey for the
U.S. Nationals against the Rus-sians.)
Our other referee is no
stranger to hockey either. How-ever,
it has been nearly 40 years
since he has had on a pair of
skates. This is professor Swan
Engwall. But he admits that he
can be easily swayed by the emo-tions
of the players.
The surprise event of the day
will be a game in which a Bethel
"all star" team will play against
a St. Paul team.
Remember—all the competition
is on a class basis. Come and sup-port
yours and be sure to enter
the events you like best.
A trophy will be awarded the
winning class at the Saturday
night variety show.
Two Warren Miller ski movies
will be shown.
"Moonlight in Vermont," "Suzy
Snowflake," "Frosty the Snow-man,"
and "It's a Marshmallow
World" will be sung by a trio—
Bev Harrison, Rene Leafblad, and
June McGillivray. The Lee Lewis
Octette will also sing.
Admission will be by banquet

Call To Contemplation
Silence Held To Be Key
by Marvin W. Anderson
Seminary Senior
In the center of sound, silence. In the babble of voices, the Voice,
crying in the Wilderness ... Beyond all words, and transcending speech,
the Word of God would speak, if we shall listen.
The cryptic message of T. S. Eliot sears our conscience as we seek
for God's Word:
The Word without a word, the Word within
The world and for the world;
And the light shone in darkness and
Against the word the unstilted world still whirled
About the centre of the silent Word.
0 my people, what have I done to thee.
Where shall the word be found, where will the word
Resound? Not here, there is not enough silence ...
He who was greatest of those born of women became a Voice, cry-ing
in the silent wilderness. This voice compels us to silence and
solitude, neglected facets of our spiritual heritage.
Silence is disturbing, for it unmasks the strangers that we are
in the world of sound. It mirrors our real selves and invades the realm
of thought. "Be still and know that I am God." No knowledge without
silence, and no God without calm. Apropos in an age of cacaphony and
speed is the still, small voice of the Word of God.
Silence brings solitude. The modern penchant for gregarity: we who
cannot sup in solitude, need the calm and assurance of the desert. "In
Eternity, you will look in vain for the crowd." Thoughts in solitude
again will gain access to the presence of God.
Contemplation of God, stemming from communion with the silent
Word, springs from a silent soul in an attitude of solitude before
Christ and the crisis of His cross.
No place of grace for those who avoid the face
No time to rejoice for those who walk among the noise
and deny the voice.

The Rook (maleficent obsession)
Once upon a midnight dreary while I pondered weak and weary
Supping on a bowl of puree since my lobes were blinking bleary;
As I studied, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping
'Companied by murmured yapping there outside my chamber door.
Finals though my mind enwrapping I played naughty feigning napping.
Yet continued still the tapping and increased into a rapping
So that soon the sound slammed slapping, slipping through my chamberdoor;
And I hoped some kind kidnapping would remove the slipping slapping
That disturbed my feigned sly sleeping at the desk this side the door.
Only this and nothing more.
But the noise continued stronger. I could stand it then no longer
When the rapping turned to ripping and the yapping to a roar.
I arose and in a hurry flew to pacify the flurry
And I wondered what I'd whisper when I opened wide the door —
"Now you know that I am napping so please bother me no more."
Here I opened wide the portal and performed the brief recital
That I'd muttered tersely in my mind the moment just before.
But in spite of my appealing I began to find the feeling
Of rejection soon concealing when I found myself a-reeling
To the bed upon the floor;
For the others all around us wafted worries with a snore
And they needed one more person to make up a hand of four.
Fretful fancies of the finals I attempted to ignore
As the dealer did the dealing and the winners won with squealing
As I pouted my appealing then appealed at last no more.
Round the ghastly game we gathered from that moment until four
As we played ourselves to sleeping from that moment until four
Only "Rook" and nothing more.
Quoth we later, "Nevermore."

To the Editor:
It is my understanding that it
is a signal honor to be chosen
editor of the CLARION. It is
obvious that with this honor also
goes the privilege and responsi-bility
of making your paper a
worthwhile contribution to a "cam-pus
of Christian scholarship."
I fail to see such value in such
articles as the last "Square Cor-ner"
in Which an attempt is made
by a pseudo-sophisticate to expose
the entire student body to a vi-carious
experience of attending a
"rock and roll" session. If "Com-mon
John" feels the need to so
slum and waste his God-given time
on such worthless pursuits, this is
his affair, but I see no reason
for exposing all to it!
Having been graciously saved
from years wasted in this type of
life, I feel qualified to speak out
against such activities. Frankly,
to read such flippant and glib
gibberish in our paper nauseates
me. Must we be like the world in
all things ? God's Word advises to
"flee youthful lusts!"
In the name of Christian dec-ency
I pray that in the future
you may feel led to consign such
articles to their deserved place—
the trash can!
Julius Whitinger
In the "Square Corner" article
mentioned in the above letter,
criticism was leveled on the directly
observable evidence that I had
attended a "rock and roll session."
Perhaps it was because I did not
attack dancing in true crusading
fashion, exposing all its evils, that
it was thought that I approved
of the activity. This was not nec-essarily
so. Actually I had found
the scene rather amusing and
tried to convey this feeling, at the
same time trying to be reasonably
While the "Square Corner" pro-duces
- no works of literary note,
it is not designed to nauseate. The
purpose of the "Corner" for the
most part is to inform the stu-dent
body of inexpensive cultural
opportunities in the Twin City
area. KSTP-TV was one in the
series. Perhaps it was unfortunate
that the only available live tele-cast

Dear Editors:
I would like to state my business
as briefly, honestly, and dogmati-cally
as possible.
I am a member of the majority
group uninvited to the Sno Daze
activities. It has been suggested
by female friends of mine and
confirmed by members of the male
populus that the specific reason
for the sparse attendance to this
affair is simply that guys in gen-eral
are not interested in spend-ing
an outrageous sum (minimum
$15) on someone who is merely a
Therefore, it seems to me that
the root of the trouble originates
in the beginning of the year at
the social events transpiring be-fore
Sno Daze. It is my sincere
(and dogmatic) belief that more
events on campus ought to be par-ticularly
designated as "date af-fairs."
Perhaps we could add more
mixers and box-socials.
Each week we have what is
called Dress-Up for dinner which
is usually followed by a social or
cultural event. I believe that many,
if not all, of these events ought
to be labeled and strictly enforced
as "Dates Only!"
Perhaps at first glance this ap-pears
to be social suicide for many
girls, and yet I feel convinced that
if this idea were given time it
would be found quite profitable.
It seems very feasible to me that
a boy would be willing to take a
girl to a campus event, the total
financial burden of such an event
being no more than a quarter for
a sundae.
I believe, in short time, guys
would get adjusted to the idea and
dating would become an enjoyable
and natural experience at Bethel
(which I think we all secretly de-sire).
I could go on to elucidate my
convictions concerning a Chris-tian's
responsibility to a well-ad-justed
social life, but I will leave

Western world. Thompson suggest-ed:
That every graduate history de-partment
in the United States
offer courses in Russian history
taught by a trained specialist.
That every graduate student
majoring in modern European his-tory
be required to take some
work in the history of Russia and
Eastern Europe.
That every college history de-partment
should have one man
with sufficient training to teach
a good survey of Russian history.
That every bachelor of arts col-lege
graduate should be acquaint-ed
in some fashion with the prob-lems
and issues affecting Russian
and Soviet development.
Proper Student Training
Thompson stressed the need for
educators in the United States
to consider searchingly and in good
conscience how well they are pre-paring
their students for respon-sible
citizenship in the world of
1980. He emphasized that this
would be a world in which Russia,
China, and all of Asia and Africa
would be playing prominent roles
daily affecting the vital interests
of the United States.
To increase the number of tea-chers
qualified to impart some un-derstanding
of Russia to American
students, Thompson suggested:

A Northwestern university his-torian,
L. S. Stavrianos, in his
paper on "World History and the
Teacher," said that the teaching
of world history today in the
United States is in a troubled
state at all levels, from the high
school to the graduate school.
Stavrianos said the basic reason
for this troubled state is the at-tempt
to teach such courses and
to write world history textbooks
by starting with Europe and add-ing
materials on Africa, South
Asia, and the Far and Middle
East whenever Europe impinged
on these regions. This procedure
has proved inadequate for two rea-sons:
The added materials have made
both the courses and the text-books
pedagogically unmanage-able.
They have produced a "hybrid
which perhaps may be properly
defined as 'Europe and Its World
Relationships,' but which d'efin-
Hely is not world history."
What Is Our Objective?
To cope with this situation it is
necessary first to "differentiate
definitely and unequivocally be-tween
European history and world
history," Stavrianos said. If world
history is the objective, then
courses and textbooks must be
organized clearly and consistently
on a global basis.

peoples, with the result that Cairo,
Delhi, and Peking today are
crowding Washington, London, and
Paris in the daily headlines,"
Stavrianos declared. Epochal tech-nological
advances that have made
all neighbors have caused many to
question whether the traditional
Western Civilization course, by it-self,
is adequately preparing stu-dents
for the one world in which
they are destined to live.
It was the opinion of Stavrianos
that advanced undergraduate and
graduate courses should concen-trate
on limited phases of world
history, while freshman college
and high school courses should be
comprehensive in scope.
New Approach Outlined
William H. McNeill, of the Uni-versity
of Chicago, who appeared
on the panel with Stavrianos, said
that the question of how "our
common view of world history
should be revised cannot be an-swered
exactly until a number of
scholars have made the attempt"-
He thought that a promising ap-proach
would be to focus atten-tion
upon major centers of social
and cultural innovations in any
given epoch and study how other
societies reacted to the novelties
introduced at such centers.
A delightful experience for those
attending the convention was the
address of Walter Prescott Webb,
out-going president of the Assoc-iation.
Among the many other
humorous things he had to say in
his address, "History as a High
Adventure," Webb told how, in
looking around for something to
talk about at the annual banquet,
he had examined the published
speeches of his AHA presidential
predecessors. Judging from these,
he noted, one must conclude that
historians are "deadly serious"
and that the presidents "had much
learning, some wisdom and no fun
at all."

Who, Why, And How?
Intramurals Evaluated
Intramural athletics have long
been accepted as an important
part of the total college program.
Students and administration rea-lize
the value of the team exper-ience.
Many students, those who
lack the time to participate and
those not sufficiently adept at
athletics for intercollegiate com-petition
never experience team
Intramural athletics provides for
these students an opportunity to
be a team member as well as giv-ing
them some physical activity
which is held to be important to
living. Physical education courses
are required for only two years at
college, and these for only two
hours weekly. Outside of this re-quired
activity large numbers of
students confine themselves ex-clusively
to other pursuits.
The importance of intramural
athletics is further demonstrated
by the fact that such a group as
North Central association takes
the intramural program into con-sideration
when determining whe-ther
or not a school deserves its
seal of approval.
In fact, the concern of the
North Central group is one rea-son
which makes the intramural
question important as Bethel col-lege
now seeks regional accredi-tation.
Are intra•urals sufficiently
prominent and successful at Bethel
college? Does the success of our
program compare with that of
other schools of our size, origin,
and environment (if such exist) ?
Are students interested in the
The men's schedule provides
competition in flag football, vol-leyball,
basketball, badminton,
handball, ping pong, softball, and
A -variety of sports as men-tioned
above would apparently in-terest
nearly all students. Such
a comprehensive and interesting
program seems to be just the
component to combine with our
academic, religious, and social
phases to provide a balanced col-lege
life. But the "well-rounded,"
average Bethel student doesn't
appear to be very attracted.
For example, most men's team
captains consider themselves for-tunate
to have six of their team
members present to play volley-ball,
yet each of the eight men's
teams have nearly 40 members.
The men's schedule is posted on
the fieldhouse bulletin board, an-nouncements
are made in physical
education classes, and team cap-tains
leave notes in mail boxes,
but very little response occurs.
The same handful of men are pre-sent.
This same handful of men
will be present for the spring
sports also.
A similar situation exists in the
women's program, but it might be
partly explained by the fact that

til the middle of November. To
some degree it is imaginable that
female students had developed a
schedule for studies, social life,
etc., which did not leave time for
an intramural athletic program
tardily introduced after their 24
hours per day had been filled, but
it would seem likely that more
than the handful would consider
it important to take time out and
be physically and competitively
stimulated through athletics.
The goal of the intramural pro-gram
is, of course, the physical
fitness of every student, which will
not be achieved without 100 per
cent participation. This will prob-ably
never be realized, but pro-gress
would certainly be encourag-ing.
Perhaps Bethel students are too
busy elsewhere. Perhaps physical
activity is not important enough
to the "well-rounded" Bethel stu-dent
for him to allow it to take
precedent over other activities,
without, as well as within, the
curriculum. Perhaps activities open
to Bethel Students are too num-erous.
At any rate, the number of
students participating at present
in intramural athletics hardly jus-tifies
reserving two evenings a
week on the official school calen-dar.

Snow Events With Hockey
by C. N. Elven
IT IS QUESTIONABLE YOU KNOW. Bethel's second to one cam-pus,
Como park, will be cluttered (it's advertised that way) with our
lovely little ( ?) coeds swirling about with Joe hero beside them.
AND THEN THERE'S THIS THREATENING PROBLEM. Juniors
have a reputation at stake, that
being their dominance in sports
events and having claim to the
Sno trophy since it was inaugur-ated
two years ago. Can they do
it again?
Now take traying for instance.
The girls are credited with the

event last year and look at the
prize she got—Don.

know, we have been for the past
two years.
Yo-Ho-Ho; 16 Men On • • •
Fanatics, they're all around us. Did you know that there are
people who attend our institution that enjoy being struck by a mis-guided
missile traveling at 80 to 100 miles an hour. This is fact.
I sat down with a group of these fanatics to discuss and learn
a few rudiments of the now royal sport of hockey. After discovering
the difference between a goalie and a wingman, I tried to probe into
the future of hockey here.
As I understand it, Bethel college now has approximately 17
fanatics-116 hockey players and Hudson, who has been on skates only
twice—comprising the roster for the hockey team.
Seminarian Dick Westby has consented to be a player coach. He
is trying to work his boys into some semblance of organization.
Comprising the first two lines are Westby, Gordh, L. Nelson, Mil-bery,
A. Penner, and Benent while McNaughton, M. Penner, Martinson,
and Moberg cinch the defensive positions. Dick Resch is goalie.
In the past few years various students have attempted to organize
a hockey team without too much success. But this year could be dif-ferent.
This is made significant by the number of players out thus
far and that we have a coach at our disposal.
Finances are a basic problem. At present our Athletic Department
has been most generous in their encouragement verbally, but the pur-chasing
power of words is small. The department has let the men use
jerseys and a few pads for which the stick men are grateful.
In order for the boys to be set up in league style, there are several
things which are necessary. Here are a few: wooden sticks, $3, or
fiberglass sticks, $4.75; goalie pads, $40; gloves, $16; skates, $50 - $60;
pads, $11; jerseys, $6; breezers, $12; to say nothing of boards which
run as high as $1,200. And our Athletic Department doesn't at present
have this kind of money. Perhaps if you know of a rich, ah—you know
what I mean.
The Needle
Bethel has finally come up with some scoring punch with Kindall,
Turnquist, and King all averaging around '20 points in the last three
games . . . Sport cars have finally arrived: the little red Porsche belong-ing
