Summary:FOOTBALL PRACTICE RESUMED Unfortunately, due to weather con-ditions, the spring football practice has been delayed for a number of days. However, with the return of fair weather Coach Cleve again has his aggregation at work. Thus far the practices have con-sisted mainly of drills on fundamen-tals. Thursday was the first day de-voted to team work when Coach Cleve introduced his tentative formation for the coming season. He has chosen "Pop" Warner's style which has proved very successful, and with sev-eral lettermen back and many pros-pects the style should be one of the most effective in the Minnesota con-ference. If weather conditions permit it, a scrimmage will be held Saturday aft-ernoon, and another one either Thurs-day or Friday next week, which will conclude the spring practice. Only one injury has occurred so far. Merril Distad of Fargo, N. Dak., was injured during tackling practice Tuesday. Forty men reported at Coach Cleve's call to practice. They are as follows: Lettermen —• Stanford Strand, Earl Wambach, captain; George Lee, Milton Grimsrad, Theo-dore Grimsrud, Julian Tollerud, Ed-win Olson, Leonard Larson, Ferdi-nand Anderson, Martin Engh, Melvin Anderson, and Lawrence Thompson. Members other than lettermen: Ove Evans, Purl Enger, Willard Soland, Harry Johnson, Walter Rogers, ErlinK Anderson, Orris Johnson, Lawrence Lechner, Arnold Erickson, Clifford Olson, Merril Distad, Julian Toftness, Albert Larson, Jordan Rasmussen, Ole Haroldson, Ole Dahl, Jerome An-derson, Alton Storslee, Leon Johnson, Chester Nightengale, Raymond Cor-des, Millard Brolin, Bertram Peterson, Basil Schipp, Kermit Sorenson, Ar-nold Sanderson and Merton Sweeney. Since children especially are influ-enced by beautiful surroundings, gardens and flowers should be an essential part of each child's environ-ment. Gladys Dahl then played a piano solo. After the program, luncheon was served by Helen Malvey, Laurette Meland, Bernice Sylvester, Clara Bly, Elsie Branae and Agnes Wold. BASEBALL AND TENNIS Until the present time Concordia has neglected to take part in one of the major sports in the Minnesota Conference, namely baseball. Coach Cleve intends to start baseball prac-tico immediately after the spring football season is completed. There will be no intercollegiate competition this year, but if the plans are approved by the athletic board, Concordia will next year experience its first year of intercollegiate baseball competition. Coach Cleve expects to arrange for a class tournament that will develop a keener interest in this sport. Coach Frank Cleve also announced that he will encourage tennis this spring, and offered to take the best players as representatives of the col-lege to the Twin City Tournament this spring. The courts arc in excel- ! lent condition and many tennis fans have already been endeavoring to demonstrate how Tiiden does it.

OMICRON TAU DELTA "The Why and How of Gardens" was discussed by Morris Fredericks at the luncheon meeting of the Omicron Tau Delta, Thursday, April 12. Mr, Fredericks sketched the his-tory of gardens in the various count-ries from very ancient times to the present, showing that gardening was one of man's first experiments in seeking beauty. "Man turns impul-sively and instinctively to nature for beauty," he said. "To live long and be happy, sponsored a garden. It will open your eyes to beauties and mysterious in nature you never saw before." The home is the basis of the na-tion. It tends to develop upright citizens, and so anything accomplished toward improving and beautifying the homo will also improve the citizens.

SANDNESS Dentist Phones, Office 854; Res. 1707-VV Evenings by Appointment First State Bank Building Moorhead *.: :: Minnesota "As You Like I f Comstoc^ Cafe The development, especially intel-lectual and spiritual, is evident in Norway as well as in other European countries was brought out by Dr. J. j A. Aasgaard, president of the Nor-wegian Lutheran Church of America, ft.rmer president of Concordia Col-lege, in an address given Monday eve-ning, April 23 at the fourth dedica-tory service of the First Lutheran Church in Fargo. Impressions re-ceived from a visit to Norway also formed part of the address. The greatest heritage of Norweg-ian- Americans, Dr. Aasgaard stated, is the inheritance of faith in Jesus Christ. Dr. Aasgaard urged the pre-servation of this faith so that the sons of the children of today will call the men of the present generation blessed. Few Americans, Dr. Aasgaard continued, in citing his impressions, realize how extremely far north Nor-way is situated. Oslo, the capital, is located in the southern part of Nor-way, yet has a latitude of 60 degrees comparable to the latitude of the southern half of Hudson Bay. The austere forces of nature add a majes-ty to the scenery of Norway. The very forces of nature bring into reali-zation the Infinite God . Culture and learning are stressed at the European universities and no emphasis placed on the socalled "col-lege life." It makes one wonder, Dr. Aasgaard said, whether "the side show has got away with the main room circus" in this country. The economic depression of Nor-way is to a great part due to its phy-sical contour. An extensive light-house system must be maintained along the tremendous coast line. The highway, the railroad and the postal and telegraph systems have been de-veloped at tremendous cost against such opposing forces of nature. The educational system is highly devel-oped. The Lutheran Church is the state church, the state supporting from six hundred to seven hundred churches. A Bible institute and pastorial con-ference will be held at Concordia Col-lege this summer from July 8th to Vllh. For several years such a con-ference was conducted on the campus, but was discontinued about throe years ago. Several interested pastors and lay people have asked to have the conference revived. Pres. Brown placed the matter before the pastoral conference of the North Dakota and Northern Minnesota Districts at their conventions this winter with the re-sult that both districts elected com-mittees to co-operate with the auth-rities at the college in arranging for i\ summer conference. Pi*es. David rUoeve and Rev. J. Walter Johnshoy "cpresent the North Dakota District and Rev. S. T. Sorenson and Rev. Her-man Muus represent the Northern Minnesota Dirstrict. The college is being represented by Pres. Brown, Rc\. Carl D. Ylvisakcr and Prof. H. H. Dale. The committee is pleased to an-rounce that they have secured an un-usually strong faculty to conduct the conference this summer. Prof. Leand-cr Keyser, D. D. of Hamma Divinity School, Springfield, Ohio will give a series of lectures each day on prac-tical and opologetic themes. Dr. Key-ser is one of the most popular lectur-ers on the religious platform today. He is the author of a number of books which have received wide circulation among the Reformed Churches as well as in Lutheran circles. Dr. George Svcrdrup, president of Augsburg College and Seminary, Min-neapolis, Minnesota will lecture on the Book of Amos. Pres. Sverdrup is one of the leading scholars and lecturers of the Lutheran Church and brings to the conference a wide experience from the field of Christian education as well as the Church work in gen-eral. The committee feels that they are fortunate in securing his services foi* this conference. Rev. Odd Cornitzka, instructor in tho Lutheran Bible Institute of St. Paul, Minnesota, will give studies in St. Paul's First Epistle to the Corin-thians. Concordia has becomo de-pendent upon the Lutheran Bible In-stitute for the success of our summer conferences and appreciates its will-ingness to send Rer. Cornitzia this year. Concordia looks forward to his helpful and inspiring messages. Rev. J. A. 0. Stub, D. D., well-known pastor and pulpit orator of Central Lutheran Church, Minnepolis, Minnesota will be the fourth member of the summer faculty. Dr. Stub has had a rich experience as pastor of one of the lai-gest churches in the middle west. He has also taken an active part in the general work of our Synod. We know that his messages will be filled with many practical suggestions for work in the congregation and the Synod as a whole. The committee also plans to invite ?. few speakers to lecture on subjects with which they are especially far-iliar. The conference will open Sunday forenoon with a union service of all Lutheran Churches in Fargo and Moorhead in the Fargo auditorium with Dr. J. A. 0. Stub as speaker. Definite arrangebents have not yet been made for the other services on Sunday, but will undoubtedly consist oi' evening services conducted by the other lecturers of the conference. Monday morning the conference will continue in the spacious chapel at the college. Three fifty-minute lec-tures will bo given from nine to twelve each day. The afternoon will be given over to rest and recreation. The evening session will begin at sev-en o'clock and will consist of one lee-, ture, discussions, and a "question box". This program should make a strong appeal to our pastors and interested lay people. It is hoped that a large number will attend and share the in-formation of this week. The dormitories of the college and the college boarding club will be plac-ed at the disposal of the visitors. In o.der to defray the expenses a registration fee of $2.00 per family will be charged. Board will be fur-nished for the six days at $5.00 for adults and $3.00 for children. No charge will be made for the doromitor-ies, but visitors must bring their own bed clothes and towels. A hearty welcome is extended to all Lutherans to come and enjoy a week's vacation on the shady, green campus of Concordia. It will cost less than any other form of vacation and will be both on intellectural and spiritual treat. Bring the entire family with you. A junior Bible institute will be organized for the children if they come in sufficient numbers. Those planning to attend will please notify Pres. J. N. Brown as early as possible in order that the committee may pro-vide accomodations for everyone. LUTHER LEAGUE DRS.

The Luther League met Sunday with Clara Paulson, the new presi-dent, presiding. The meeting opened with a hearty song after which Or-lean Rue led in scripture reading and prayer. A piano duet was then rend-ered by Agnes and Marie Grimsrud. Lars Larsen was the speaker of the evening. He selected for discussion the Luther League, topic, the eighth chapter of Acts, from which he drew several lessons applicable to modern Christians. There are many souls today like Simon the Sorcerer. By their superstitious beliefs and prac-tices they directly violate the First Commandment. He concluded with the appeal: "See that your hearts are right," which is the first step in the expanding work of a Christian. NUMISMATIC OLUB STUDIES AMERICAN COIN COLLECTION Mr. Carl Johnson of Moorhead, MinnA spoke on "American Coins" at the Numismatic Club meeting, Tuesday evening, April 17. Mr. Johnson ex-plained the method of bidding at an auction sale and tho value of money used in this manner. In the selection of coins the rarest specimens should first be accumulat-ed, around which the rest of the coif lection should be constructed. The books of the club have been placed in the library. The next meeting of the Numis-matic Club will be held in May.
