Paul Rogness to Spend Two Years At Oxford as Rhodes Scholar Paul Rogness, St. Paul, Minn., senior, will be spending the next two years at the Univer-sity of Oxford in England, having garnered a PAUL ROGNESS Rhodes scholarship from statewide and sec-tional competition. The Rhodes scholarship, one of the most highly revered honors in academic circles, established by Cecil Rhodes in 1903, will make it possible for Paul to study philoso-phy, politics and economics and gain a bachelor of arts degree, the Oxonian equivalent for our M.A. Only 32 Rhodes scholars from the United States are chosen each year, the choice being based upon scholastic achievement (20 per cent), participation and interest in sports (20 per cent), character and personality qualifica-tions (30 per cent), and relations with one's fellow (30 per cent). Paul was chosen from the eight com-petitors in South Dakota and journied to a six-state sectional interview competi-tion, where he was one of the four chosen as Rhodes scholars. Other scholarship re-cipients from the South Dakota, Minne-sota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska area were Larry Popfeski of the Univer-sity of Iowa, Leslie Dirks of M.I.T., and Stuart Jordan of Washington university of St. Louis. Paul will leave for England in September. At Oxford he will receive a 600 pound yearly stipend. An English and history major, Rogness has been one of Augustana 's most active students. IN MANY STUDENT ELECTIONS at Augustana, the fresh-man class has supplied the pivotal block of votes. As the frosh go, the political pundits will tell one, so goes the majority of the Augies. This becomes an especially interesting point of ponderosity when the voter is freshman Janice Henden of Car-thage, shown here dropping the Xed sheet into the maw of the battle-worn ASA ballot box.

Y., has announced a contribution of $2,513 as a Frederick Gardner Cottrell grant for the support of Dr. Robert R. Kintner's research program, entitled "A Kinetic Investigation of the Catalyzed a n d Uncatalyzed Rearrange-ment of 2-Alkoxypyridines to N-Alkyl-2-pyridones." Research corporation was endowed originally in 1912 by Dr. Frederick Gardner Cottrell who was a scientist, teacher and inventor. The money comes from patent rights on a process for remov-ing particles from gases. Since then other people have contributed to the support of this non-profit organization. Grants given by Research corporation go primarily to small colleges and to people who are initiating research pro-jects for the first time. The grant is an initiating support which may continue for three years if needed. Essentially the grant pays for equipment, materials and assistance in the research. All of the work on this research problem will be done in the chemistry department of Augu-stana college. Election Party Is After Game By KATHY HANSON Anticipation is the key word on the Augustana campus this weekend. Suspense will contin-ue to mount until the new ASA president is introduced at the election party to be held tomor-row night in the gym at 10 p.m. after the game. The informal gathering, sponsored by the junior class, will be highlighted by the frequent announcing of elec-tion returns and the final rev-elation of the new student body mentor. Presidential candidates, Bob Rerdahl and Curt Olsen, have been extend-ed formal invitations. Ballots will be counted by the election board, which is com-posed of Milt Hanson, Pat Dig-erness, Del Kroon and Ann Stalheim, chairman. Although there will be no balloting on Saturday, the decision will remain unknown to the student body until the last returns are counted by members of the board at the suspenseful event, climaxing a week of diligent campaign-ing. All necessary run-offs for oth-er student body offices will be held Monday. The Northlanders, popular campus musical group, under the direction of Arlo Feiock, will headline the program. A vocal group will be featured and Cokes will be served. Next week the Augustana campus will resume its normal schedule, and political enemies will again lunch together in the Huddle, with talk of se-mester exams replacing the former heated election discus-sions.
