ONCOROiA COLLEGE Prexy Breaks Ground For Dorm By Marguerite Ellingson The turning over of the first spadeful of earth by Dr. J. N. Brown, Monday, marked the beginning of actual construction work on the new men's dormitory at Concordia. This ground breaking ceremony marked a long-awaited day. After months of planning, dreams of a masculine counterpart for Fjel-stad hall are nearing realization. The band played marches on the field where it has so many times performed for games and cheered the crowd with its rous-ing rhythms. From the bleachers the students joined in singing the school songs—not the fighting words of "Stand Up and Cheer," but the "Hymn to Concordia" as befitted the occasion. Present for the services were the architect, who also designed Fjelstad hall, the contractor for both dormitories, presidents of church and campus organizations, as well as representatives from ^the faculty and the cities of Fargo and Moorhead. Construction workers were giv-en a head start on excavation when demands of the various newspaper and campus photogra-phers required that the perform-ance be repeated several times. Besides Doctor Brown, those who took part in the program, as well as other interested friends of Concordia, turned over spadefuls of earth. Nor was the ground breaking limited strictly to the men. One woman In attendance had turned earth for Fjelstad hall and want-ed a hand in this project as well. After a shor^ j^vtetoriou. /\t Luncheon, Banquet Science Club Elects Prexy Officers were elected by the Science club at its second meet-ing last Monday. They are Har-ley Carlson, president; Richard Strand, vice-president, and Con-stance Rostad, secretary-treas-urer. Prof. R. E. Fuglestad has been adviser to the group, and Dr. K. O. Lee, Dr. Mae Anderson, Prof. Sigurd Mundhjeld, Prof. A. L. Eliason, Prof. A. M. Sattre and A. H. Sanden constitute the ad-visory board. Ardis Thvedt, Ralph Rygg and Mona Rae Hvidsten were named on a committee to formulate a constitution for the organization. The next meeting will be held Monday. All upper classmen and sophomores who have chosen either a major or minor in the field of biology, chemistry, phy-sics or mathematics are eligible for membership. Local Chapter To Honor National APG President struggle with and the tough sod, she tossed over her share of turf, put the spade down, and declared, VThls sod here is much harder than where the other dorm was built." The constant trampling of cleated shoes of the Cobber teams had undoubtedly toughened the turf considerably, but by next spring it is expected that new lawns will be started on the spot that has been the scene of so any football battles. The ground is broken now and the contractor's tool shed is erect-ed. Concordia's long cherished hope of bigger and better build-ings is on its way to being ful-filled. Madagascar Missionary Speak In Chapel s Miss May Rendahl, recently re-turned missionary from Madagas-car, will appear as chapel speaker Monday. Tuesday the program will be sponsored by Mu Phi Epsilon. In-troducing the soloists will be Vir-ginia Dale. Dolores Berg will* play a piano solo and there will be vo-cal solos by Estelle Johnson, Cor-inne Anderson and Charlotte Heisler. During the next three chapel periods Rev. Sidney Rand, Dr. J. Walter Johnshoy and Rev. Clar-ence Hanson will present their weekly Lenten meditations. To welcome Gil Cowan, nation-al president of Alpha Phi Gamma, to Concordia, officers of the cam-pus chapter and their adviser Prof. Peter Anderson will play host to him Friday, April 12, at a luncheon in the Gopher Grill. The event is scheduled for 12:30. Highlighting Mr. Cowan's visit here will be a banquet in the Co-lonial room at the Gardner hotel at 7 the same evening. Active members from the local fratern-ity at Concordia and a journal-istic group from the NDAC as well as alumni from the two col-leges will be present. Comprising the general ar-rangement committee are Dolores Severtson and Borgni Skorpen. Invitations are being sent by Viv-ian Thorkelson and Joan Heinz. Those on the decorations commit-tee are Betty Strand, Dagny Haugrud and Selma Berge. Call For Reporters Any student interested in reportorial work on The Con-cordian may apply Monday at 6:45 in the publications office, announces Rolf Aaseng, editor-in- chief. The reporting staff for 1946-47 will be filled as far as possible this year. Students, both with and without experi-ence, are welcomed to try out. THE CONCORDIAN Volume XXXVIII Conoordia College, Moorhead, Friday, April 5, 1946 Number 21 IRC Schedules Joint Meeting Arrangements are being com-plete4_. for a joint meeting of the International Relations clubs from MSTC, NDAC and Concordia to be held here Thursday at 7 p.m. in the North lounge of Fjelstad hall. The topic to be discussed is the governing of occupied territories of Germany and Japan. Speaking on the subject of governing occu-pied Germany will be K e i t h Christensen of the AC. Adeline Miller of MSTC will present the main talk on Japan. Following the ten-minute pre-sentations of the topics will be a panel discussion carried on by representatives from each of the three colleges. Dr. Paul Heaton of Moorhead will summarize the discussion on Japan and Dr. W. C. Hunter of Fargo will conclude the discussion on Germany. Students from Concordia who will be on the panel are Iola Bjerke, Willys Nord, Borgni Skor-pen, William Mattke, Donald Han-sen, Vivian Thorkelson, Art Sol-heim and Marguerite Ellingson. Risetter, Boe Assume Positions On Concordia Faculty Next Year Two members have been added to the Concordia faculty, according to an announcement by Dr. J. N. Brown. They are Miss Agnes Risetter, instructor in the speech department, and Rev. Victor C. Boe, who will serve as dean of men. Both Miss Risetter and Reverend Boe will assume their new positions next fall. A St. Olaf graduate of 1926, Miss Risetter has done graduate work in radio speech and inter-pretative reading at the Univer-sity of Wisconsin. She has served as speech instructor at Holmen, Wisconsin, and at present is teach-ing at Baraboo, Wisconsin. She will instruct courses in speech and dramatics. Pastor at Scobey, Montana, AGNES RISETTER Ex-member Of Royal Canadian Mounted To Lecture Here Wednesday Evening Ex-member of the Royal Can-adian Mounted Police, Sydney R. Montague will speak in the chapel Wednesday at 8 p.m. on "Oppor-tunities North." Cited by some as the most popular personality on the American lecture platform today, he is author of "North to Adventure" and "I Lived With the Eskimos." In the Police, Mr. Montague gave reign to a bias toward ad-venture, inherited from a long line of seafaring ancestors. His father was a sea captain and he himself was educated in Montreal, Canada. An eagerness to go to unexplored parts of the continent led him to the North, where he served with the Mounties for six years. Before retiring from the Force, he spent years on the Arc-tic patrol and lived among the Eskimos of Northeast America in the Arctic land area. In his speeches a~hd books, Mr. Montague makes it clear that the North is a hard task-mistress. She demands in .man and woman a method of living which is brave and with high standards. From his life with the Eskimos, he has come to understand these people and has grasped their philosophy. Dramatic Fraternity Plans Spring Banquet In celebration of the 20th an-niversary of the national Alpha Psi Omega dramatics fraternity, plans are being formulated by the campus chapter for a spring ban-quet. The event will take place April 13 at the Silver room in the Graver hotel in Fargo. Invited to attend are Alpha Psi Omega chapter members from MSTC, Mayville State Teachers college, Valley City Teachers col-lege, Dickinson Teachers college, Minot Teachers college and Augu-stana college. The program for the evening will be composed of numbers by a representative of each of the in-vited chapters. Alpha Alpha, local group, will present a selection of initiation stunts. As a member of the Royal Can-adian Mounted "Police, he had op-portunity for adventure. He is the man that was lost on floating ice, who almost starved to death twice, and who lived to fly by plane all over the desert of snow and ice in Baffin Land and Ungava, over which he had traveled by dog team. He delights in the strange but has a contempt for foolhardi-ness. When he came to dangerous spots, he found danger could be lessened by cooperating with the natives. Band To Broadcast Over KVOX Tonite First in a series of spring broadcasts planned for the con-cert band will be presented over radio station KVOX, Moorhead, tonight from 7:30 to 8, under the direction of Professor J. A. Hol-vik. The program will include "Chi-cago Tribune, March" by Cham-bers, "The Traveler Overture" by Buchtel, two marches, "Colonel Bogey" by Alfqrd and "Invercar-gill" by Litgow, "Desert Song Overture" by Sigmund Romberg, "Gloria March" by Losey and "God Bless America" by Irving Berlin. Brown Speaks To Reorganized Club During the recent trip to Chi-cago, Dr. J. N. Brown spoke at a reorganization meeting of the Chicago Cobber club. Elected president of the club was Rev. Ariel R. Molldrem '33, of Chica-go. Rev. Norris Stoa '31, of Mor-ris, 111., was chosen vice president. Secretary for the group is Miss Gladys Rydeen '30, a teacher in Evanston, 111., and G. Merlin Ro-stad '35, from Chicago, is the treasurer. Doctor Brown was in Chicago to attend a meeting of the North Central Association the last week in March. REV. VICTOR C. BOE since March of last year, Rever-end Boe is a Concordia graduate of 1932. He was superintendent of schools in Borup from 1932 un-til 1935 and served as pastor at Chinook, Montana, from 1941 to 1945. A graduate of Luther Theo-logical seminary in 1941, Rever-end Boe studied further at the University of North Dakota. Leonard A. Moe, present dean of men at Concordia, will instruct classes in education and continue to serve as business manager of the concert choir. from a Reporter's Notebook By 3IARJ MUELLER SAD SACK After some rather pointed re-marks had been made by Harlancl Nelson to Bonnie Townsend con-cerning her physical proportions, Bonnie, rising up in righteous in-dignation, remarked, "Say, I'm not so big. I just bought three new things, and they're all size 13." The sharp, never-to-be squelched Harland quipped, "What were they—two shoes and a hat?" SPEEDY SPADING Joyce Bolmeier, having missed the ground-breaking ceremonies for the new men's dormitory Mon-day, drove by Wednesday and see-ing most of the field plowed up, asked in a surprised tone, "Dr! Brown didn't have to do all that' did he?" SEASONAL SLIPUP Rather out of season due to the rapid weather changes of late was the sign on the bulletin board Thursday: ''Men wanted to rake lawns." Some honest soul, after plowing through a foot of snow, scrawled the apt remark "or to shovel side-walks." |
