Person College Planning Day is Oct. 26 High school seniors from South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska will be visiting the Augustana cam-pus Saturday, Oct. 26, for the newly instituted College Plan-ning Day. This is the first time a day such as this has been held at Augustana. It will give visit-ing seniors a chance to ac-quaint themselves with vari-ous college practices through means of group discussions, tours and lectures. They will have the opportunity to ask questions and meet Augus-tana faculty members as well as tour the campus. Dr. 0. W. Hascall, regional director of the American Col-lege Testing Program, will be guest speaker for the event. Recipients of soph honors are announced President L. M. Stavig an-nounced that Elizabeth Hof-stad, Gwenda Lu Winter, Har-old Baffle, and Jim Reynolds were the recipients of Sopho-more Honors for 1963 at Vik-ing Varieties on Saturday night. The two women and two men were chosen by the faculty from the, present junior class on the basis of scholarship, character, personal traits, and other special achievements ex-hibited during their first two years of college. This award is given to promote the highest type of scholarship so that the students may be prepared for effective service to society. The "Marching Vikings" will accompany the football team to the University of South Dakota Saturday eve-ning where they will present a halftime show built around Broadway show tunes. The band is returning the visit which the USD band made to Augie last year. Dr. Leland A. Lillehaug will conduct the two bands in the "Star Spangled Banner." Although marching band season is still in full swing, auditions are being held this week for the Concert and Var-sity bands. Only those in marching band are eligible for the Concert Band, but there may be openings for anyone in the Varsity Band. Anyone interested in an audition for the bands should contact Dr. Lillehaug at Ext. 250. The Concert Band selected from the auditions will be playing a concert for Parents Day on Nov. 2. Faculty wives to meet Monday The October meeting of the faculty wives will be held Monday evening, Oct. 28 at the home of Mrs. L. M. Sta-vig, according to Mrs. V. Smith, president of the organ-ization. The evening is being called "Augustana Night" and Mr. Tom Kilian of the administra-tive department will speak on the theme for the year, "Wider Horizons." Because of the growth of the organization, which now includes about 70 members, the tradition of hav-ing a meeting at President Sta-vig's home will probably be broken in the coming years. Augustana's Debate Team opened its 1963-1964 season by picking up two trophies at the Regis , College Forensics Tournament in Denver, Colo-rado. Linda Twetten, Watertown, S.
