Exhibit Features
Building Awards
This week Mikkelsen library's
art exhibition room houses a
showing of prize winning archi-tectural
forms under the spon-sorship
of the American Insti-tute
of Architects.
Including in their choices a
variety of architectural uses—
church, school, home, commer-cial
office—the judges of the
competition have indicated the
AIA's selection of best designed
buildings for 1956. The photo-graphic
reproductions will re-main
in the art room through
February 6.
Officially titled the Eighth
Annual Honor Awards Exhibi-tion
of Outstanding American
Architecture, the show lists five
honor awards and 14 awards of
merit for excellence in the ar-chitectural
field in 1956. The
actual awards were presented
at the eighty-eighth annual con-vention
of the AIA last May in
Los. Angeles, California.
Exhibits Scheduled
Following the exhibit of ar-chitecture,
a varied group of
original paintings will be shown
on a loan from International
Business Mathines. This show-ing
is slated for February 6
through the rest of that month.
Another group of child art orig-inals
from the Art Institute of
Chicago is expected to arrive
sometime in March.

"out of fox-hunting seasonA' a

Helena, Montana — Casualties
are mounting as the Augustana
college choir moves westward.
A combination of sudden alti-tude
changes, church - basement
diet, and general fatigue is ac-conting
for an average collapse
rate of 6-8 people per concert.
Monday night at Lewistown the
choir sang with 25% of the
bass section gone, as well as
various other members.
All has not been so black,
however. Trips between towns
have been generally shorter
than last year, with a resulting
increase in time for relaxation.
The Ivy League cap, new
trademark of the organization
(even "Doc" Running sports
one) has been received with
awe and curiosity by Montana
Stetsonites. The buckle - back
headgear has yet to penetrate
this far west, and is quite a
novelty to the native citizenry.
Mishaps have been many, of
course. One boy, while attempt-ing
to open the trunk of his
host's car, broke off the key in
the lock, stranding a whole
family, and Wayne Mitchell,
chairman of the trunk detail,
walked off with the key to the
Baker, Montana, high school—
making it rather difficult for
faculty and students to get in,
come Monday morning.
And of course, there are the
usual goofs in concert, such as
the time the altos sang the sec-ong
verse while the basses
chimed in with the third. It was
an interesting effect while it
lasted.
In Big Timber, a timely buz-zer

Wells, Minn.—Snow, ice, thir-ty-
below temperature and all
the other 'extremes which old
King Borealis can throw out at
this time of the year have been
met and beaten thus far by the
Julius Caesar company.
Morale is high and everyone
is feeling fine, thanks partially
to Arnie Stenseth and his man-dolin.
The impression the cast re-ceived
the first night they pack-ed,
however, was anything but
good. Every year a plywood
box used to ship caskets is ob-tained
to carry the curtains in.
this year Jim Eitrheim thought
we really had a good strong one
because it was so heavy. Im-agine
his face when he opened
the box and found the casket
inside.
Audiences have been good
and appreciative, and the per-formances
have been given with
few mishaps. At one high
school performance, t h o u g h,
Dick Hopewell was unable, at
a climatic moment, to draw his
sword and brought down the
house, not to mention a few ac-tors.
IRC Reorganizes
Students interested in in-ternational
politics will meet
to reactivate the Internation-al
Relations club on Tuesday,
February 5, at 7 p.m. in the
library Seminar Room B.
The meeting, called by IRC
advisor Prof. Donald Mundin-ger,
will consider the demand
for such an organization on
campus. Organization of the
club and election of officers will
follow if enough student inter-est
is indicated.

ed a junior debate team
which placed fourth among ten
competing teams.
On February 7-9 the debate
team will be in Denver attend-ing
the Rocky Mountain invita-tional
tournament to be held at
the University there.
Requirements include a well
defined and integrated curricu-lum
of at least two years de-signed
to include social welfare
content as part of a general
program based on a foundation
of liberal arts education.
The curriculum must also in-clude
a concentration of courses
in the junior and senior years
involving a core of at least ten
semester hours in social welfare
content and other subjects rel-evant
to social work.
The program prepares grad-uates
for advanced piofession-al
education, includes a back-ground
for students going in-to
immediate employment with
social agencies, as well as in-cluding
social welfare educa-tional
content in the liberal
education of students for citi-zenship.
At present it maintains a full
time staff of consultants, and
actively sponsors workshops
and publications as a service
to its many constituent mem-bers.
Miss Alta Quello, now super-visor
of casework services for
the Lutheran Welfare Society
of South Dakpta with 'headquar-ters
in Sioux Falls, along with
Mr. Richard Vornborck, psychi-atric
social worker on the staff
of the Minnehaha County Men-tal
Health Center located on
Augustana's campus, will be
teaching the accredited courses.
Both instructors have Masters
degrees in social work, Miss
Quello's from the University of
Minnesota and Mr. Vornbrock's
from Washington university. In
addition, both have had exten-sive
experience in public and
private welfare agencies to qual-ify
them for their teaching posi-tions.
