Betty Sue Armstront Business Manager ____________ Ardyce Toohey Circulation Manager EDITORIAL OBSERVATIONS Objective A Question Of Man's Destiny NDAC will enter another of its annual Religious Emphasis weeks Saturday, this one including a series of seminars led by members of a Christian Missions team. During the week many NDAC students, perhaps, will find themselves thinking on issues they previously had ignored. Behind religion and all systems of theological and philosophical thought lies the basic question of man's relationship to the universe. Christianity is but one of many religions being practiced in the world today. Religion, in itself, is but one explanation in a sea of explanations for man's existence on this unyielding planet. Ever since he emerged from the darkness of unrecorded history, man has been devising notions regarding his position, and today one may point to thousands of schools of thought, many claiming to be unquestionable truth. In this world of conflicting opinion man has only certain powers of discernment on which he must stake his possible claim to eternity. Since these are his only tools, it is rather obvious that he can ill afford to let them stand idle. The world, however, because its majority is mentally indolent, very often condemns the man who tirelessly seeks the truth and praises him who lazily embraces the first available dogma. Even in a complex society as this, or on a college campus where most students must be concerned primarily with mastering the mechanics of mundane professions, basic philosophic issues cannot be forgotten. Man's life is short, and his period of physical stamina generally is shorter. Since there is some possibility, at least, that there is a purpose to man's existence on earth, it would seem that there is no justifiable escape for him from the necessity of seeking a decision. One of the reasons people go to college is to learn to think. What they are supposed to be taught is the "scientific method," wherein no conclusion is drawn without adequate evidence. It is this ideal that the true thinker ever holds in view. In an open - field a man six feet tall stands in a visual circle about 14 miles across. Surrounded by trees, hills and the edifices constructed by man, however, he may see no further than across the street. In the same manner man is surrounded by a maze of convention which everywhere seeks to impede the vision of his thoughts. "It was good enough for your father, and it's good enough for you," cries the evangelist of his particular dogmatic belief, and. the lazy ones agree that must be so. They look at the four sides of the revivalist's dreary tent and imagine they see the infinite beyond. Social attitudes to the contrary, each man's philosophy is a personal thing. No outsider can insert opinions into one's mind without first approval of the owner. When all superficial considerations are cast aside, it is each man's decision that decides his destiny. In the light of this decision, the arguments presented by social convention can hardly bear serious consideration. To the student who considers religious and philosophic problems through use of the scientific method such activities as Religious Emphasis week can be opportunity for mental advancement. Subjective Abstraction, Indian Form One of the greatest minds in India today, to my knowledge, is that of Sir Rabindranath Tagore, poet, playwright and philosopher, who won the Nobel prize for literature in 1913. His writings exude a mystical quality which leaves the reader at least partially convinced that Tagore is in tune with the universe. Tagore's is the ability to say an abstract thing in an abstract manner. Among the beautiful verses in his poem, "Gitanjali," published in the volume, The Collected Poems and Plays of Rabindranath Tagore, is the following. I feel it particularly timely as NDAC goes into its annual Religious Emphasis week. "Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth; Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection; Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit; Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action, Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake." Socially Yours "They weren't built like that in New Guinea." Victory ! Spectrum Critic Admits State Of The Union Not Too Bad By FRED NELSON First NDAC performance of State of the Union, 1946 Pulitzer prize winner authored by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse, took place Tuesday in the Little Country theatre, where tonight's final offering will be presented. The play, a political satire throwing barbs at the power politicians who play prejudice against prejudice to gain votes, was a sophisticated comedy with moments that should have made the average American voter more than a little ashamed at his own laziness and "I don't care who wins just so I'm not hurt" attitude. It is unfortunate that the first night performance of the cast could not have lived up to the promise in the script., although a fairly good job was turned in with only a few signs of first night jitters. The quality of thespian endeavor should improve somewhat after Tuesday's opening. Fred Dickens as Grant Matthews, presidential aspirant, may remember what to say to his wife when she is offstage dressing for bed without the long silence as memory fails him, while Adelaide Dinwoodie, who turned in a rather wooden performance trying to let the people know she was just acting in the "other woman" role, may show just a bit more affection for leading man Dickens than a frigid peck FOR SEEDS OF ALL KINDS See Magill & Co. FARGO SEED HOUSE on the cheek under a not quite concealing hand. One thing that seemed to carry through virtually the whole cast was a rather strange attitude regarding the wholly essential "damns" and "hells" that permeated the production. A person got the impression every time either of these words was uttered that the actor or actress wanted to turn to the audience to explain, "I shouldn't say this naughty word, but it's in the script." Kenneth Mick, high powered politician, William Anderson as the wise-cracking newspaperman, and Ruth Wilhan in the not quite everloving but faithful wife role turned in the best performances of the production, my personal favorite being Anderson with some of the most effective remarks in the show. The costuming and stage management crew turned in a fine job, not attempting elaborate sets, using simple but effective scenes, and good costuming throughout, having changes for the whole cast and some mighty pretty dresses for the women. Beta Xi is the name chosen by the now local chapter that was formerly Phi Omega Pi. Taking advantage of the welcome mats out for Monday night potluck were David La Boe, Bob Davenport, Bob Owens, Phil Swanson, Johnny Deutsch, Milt Lussenden and Lois Wangen at the Beta Xi house and Myrtle Fredrikson of Daveport, N.

In Fargo It's A rthur's For Smart Apparel L. mu) MATSON UKRIER If You Don't Know Furs Know Your Furrier Pres. Longwell Cites Need For International Morality Dr. John H. Longwell, NDAC president, cited the need for a return to international morality in a message he prepared this week for inclusion in the printed program for Religious Emphasis week. His statement: "A basic principle on which the aggressors in the war worked was `Divide and Conquer.' The intention was to weaken all feasible opposition by disrupting all social progress, political institutions and moral values by campaigns involving subterfuge, deception and hate, developing distrust and strife among classes, races and creeds. This state of demoralization greatly increases the difficulties of a return to peace. "Before men and nations can agree among themselves on a basis for peace, they must re-establish mutual confidence and respect, founded on the moral principles of integrity, truth, belief in spiritual values. "Conferences of this kind have an opportunity to develop a working basis for settling some of our troubles by consideration of the relationships of social, political, racial, scientific and religious factors in our local, national and international problems."

Friday the Bison will work out on the Bozeman field and by game time Saturday should be ready to go in the slightly different Montana altitude. Little is known of the Bobcat eleven outside of the fact they are one of the many teams using the "T". Two weeks ago Nevada trounced the Montana school 38-14 and there was no report of last week's scheduled game with Portland. Coach Stan Kostka rates the Montana State club tough in his books and is expecting a real ball game to develop out of Saturday's contest. The Herd eked out a 16-14 win against the Bobcats in 1939, but in the following two years lost 7-0 and 27-0. By JACK RILLING Intramural Bowling gets underway tonight at 9 p.m. on the Grand Recreation alleys. An 18-week program has been scheduled for the ten participating teams with Bob Rekedal in charge of the league. Jim Noonan as president and Mike Pristash as secretary were elected Tuesday by the newly formed intramural athletic board that will plan and govern intramural play throughout the year. Short A Game in North Central conference competition are the Iowa Teachers with cancellation of the TeachersAugustana game last week. The Panthers have two wins and one tie in three conference tilts and, according to conference rules, must play four games. However, the scheduling of the needed games should be enough for conference delegates in their December 11 meeting in Chicago to declare the Iowa school the winner. Who's Right Eugene Fitzgerald of the Fargo Forum heads a recent Keeping In Line with "McCrady (South Dakota State coach) Lauds Rothrock," and goes on to add that McCrady told him that, if the two schools were to play again, he would build a defense for Roth- rock. On The Other Hand, Rabbit Tales in a recent South Dakota State Collegian states, "That loud 'pop' you heard over the weekend was the bursting of publicity bubble built up around North Dakota State's defense . . . the only time NDAC's center Rothrock appeared in mid-western newspapers was in the starting lineup." Anyway, The Bison are resting very securely in second place at the season's close and, despite one bad game, we are inclined to believe that the Herd's 101 points against their conference opponents' 28 shows rather conclusively there must have been some outstanding Bison line play. Turned Down by NDAC Athletic Director C. C. Finnegan because of a previously scheduled game with Concordia was a chance to play in a North Dakota inter-collegiate basketball tourney at Grand Forks from December 18-20. Sponsored by the University of North Dakota, the tourney will include seven other North Dakota schools. Signs Of The Times are the recent announcements by the UND and Iowa university to the effect that only students will see UND games this winter and that only a small number of seats will be offered the general public after the Iowa student body is taken care of. Around The Conference Ten more cagers were cut from the UND squad last week, leaving the Sioux with 20 men plus those who report from the football squad . . .

A 3 1/2-inch wet snow that started to fall Saturday morning in Vermillion caused Coach Harry Gamage of USD to contact NDAC's Coach Stan Kostka in Sioux City, Iowa, and the two agreed to call the Coyote's final game off. The cancellation gave the Herd an undisputed second place in conference play with four wins and one loss. The Bison beat Morningside, SDSC, UND, and Augustana, before losing to Iowa Teachers. Also idle because of snow, Iowa Teachers cinched the NCC title when the Panthers-Augustana game in Sioux Falls was cancelled. This left the Teachers with two wins over Morningside and the Bison and a tie game with South Dakota State. At Brookings a snow-covered field held Morningside and South Dakota State to 0-0 tie. In the last half, visibility was so poor that 25 passes missed their marks. In the only game outside the Alpha Tau Omega Touchball Team Defeats Kappa Sigs For Title Alpha Tau Omega, u pp e bracket champion, defeated Kappa Sigma Chi, lower bracket winner, 8-0 Tuesday afternoon to win the 1946 touchball crown. The Kappa Sigs won the right to enter the championship game by whipping SAE 18-0 Monday. ATO copped the upper half title with a 6-0 decision over Theta Chi last week. A pass from Bud Finsand to Dave Young in the middle of the second quarter scored the only touchdown of the game. The ATO's garnered their last two points on the last play of the game as Kappa Sig Lloyd Hillier was caught trying to pass from behind his own goal. Kappa Sigma Chi threatened in the first period after Bill Klubben intercepted a pass to the ATO 30. Hillier tossing to Paul Fedje gave the Kappa Sigs a first down on the 10, but there the threat stopped as the ATO defense stiffened. Finsand's scoring pass to Young in the end zone was almost blocked, but the ball trickled off the fingers of the KSC defense into Young's arms. On the kickoff Lyle Klubben passed to Hillier who carried down to the ATO 25. Hillier picked up five yards through center, but once again the ATO's took over on downs. In the last quarter play was centered in Kappa Sig territory and the end of the game saw the Kappa Sigs trying to score from near their own goal. Pass interceptions marked the erratic offenses of both teams in a remarkably clean but otherwise listless game. ATO pos. KSC Mayer ELarson Young E Sill Horn TJacobson JacobsonTKingston ThompsonCB.

In order to save time and avoid an epidemic, the college health center has completed arrangements for influenza injections to be given students, faculty members and their families, veterans' wives, and all interested persons, at fifty cents a shot. One injection each year affords permanent protection to the individual. Whether a person wishes to take advantage or these shots is optional and on a voluntary basis. For those persons interested, injections will be given by the health center beginning next Monday afternoon, from 3 to 5 p.m., and continuing throughout the week. Injections will be given in the left arm and the only possible reaction from these shots may be a temporary sickness, which occurs rarely. Persons suffering from an attack of flu at the present time are requested to obtain permission from their doctor before receiving these shots. Persons not able to contact the health center during these hours are asked to make other arrangements with the nurse. 1 • this week on the campus Miss Wattam Phi U Guest Gamma Delta Sets Meet Miss Evelyn Wattam, American Red Cross worker in Persia, Iran, and Egypt during the war, —, was guest speaker at a buffet supper given last Tuesday at the home of Mrs. Edgar Olson by alumnae of Phi Upsilon Omicron for active members of the organization. Miss Wattam described her wartime experiences, and stated that she would leave for Germany within the week to resume Red Cross work in foreign fields. Eligible students desiring membership in Gamma Delta will be accepted at a special acceptance meeting Sunday at 5 p.m. at the Grace Lutheran church. Refreshments will be served, followed by regular chapter business. SAI Initiates Six YMCA Hears Secretary Formal initiation of new members will take place the first Sunday in December. Poseley, Beaton Propagandize Way Into County Jobs James Posley, NDAC senior, and Darrow Beaton, summer graduate, were elected to county offices in last week's elections. Both ran as write-in candidates for the offices of constable and justice of the peace, and each was elected to the two positions. Election to both offices came as a surprise to the men, and evidently resulted from a mistaken translation of their campaign literature—cards mailed to the rural areas of Cass county. Posley ran for constable and Beaton for justice of the peace, but the voters went "whole hog" and put each of them in both offices. No direct salary is attached to the offices, the men receiving only fees from cases brought before them. Usual cases include claims cases involving less than $50, serving of notices, etc. Posley and Beaton could not immediately be reached for comment on the rumor that they planned to specialize in quick, lowcost marriage ceremonies. Both men are members of Sigma Chi fraternity. Frances Helen Mains, national student YWCA secretary of the Geneva region, was present at the recognition services for new YWCA members held Wednesday at 8 p.m. in the YMCA building.
