Contact Dean Thompson for further details. Verlyn Smith, Augie alumnus, will talk in chapel Thursday, Feb-ruary 26, as the kickoff speaker for the LSA sponsored LSAction and Foreign Students Service fund drive at Augustana.

Dulcy is a comedy in three acts by George S. Kaufman and Marc Connelly and will be presented by the Augustana drama department March 16 through 21. This play is the story of Dul-cinea Smith and her attempts to be helpful to her husband and friends. In her eager determina-tion, she plans a weekend party for a very ill-assorted group. The three acts take place before and after dinner on the evening of their arrival and the following morning. Doug Lindgren, chairman of the drive at Augustana, stated that the needs are even greater this year. The goal is $1800. As a part of the drive, Friday morning, February 27, during stu-dent body, a benefit show will be presented. Lindgren urged all students to attend as "the finest talent at Augie" will participate. The program which LSAction supports includes both interna-tional and home projects. The Foreign Student Service fund grants the opportunity to foreign students to attend school at Au-gustana. Peter Gerisch and Mar-tin Grossmann are Augie students now attending under the sponsor-ship of this fund. Lindgren, in referring to the im-portance of the drive, stated, "We have all sensed the great import-ance and strong influence which our foreign students have lent to our campus life. If we are going to continue with our foreign stu-dents and meet our important mission pledge it is necessary that we seriously consider our respon-sibility toward this drive." Verlyn Smith is assistant pas-tor of the Trinity Lutheran church in Yankton. When he was attend-ing- Augustana, he served a year as national LSA president. Lindgren stated that there will be other events during this week to highlight the fund raising. The week of February 26 through March 6 is also designed as Mis-sion Emphasis week. Plans Begin for ELC Meeting "Profile of Christian Youth" is the theme of the 1953 ELC Stu-dent conference which is being held on the Concordia college cam-pus, Moorehead, Minnesota, March 6, 7 and 8. The Rev. Carroll Hinderlie of Watertown and Dr. E. Clifford Nelson of Luther Theological sem-inary will speak at the conference.

Arrangements have been corn- April Lapland went to East Ni-pleted for two gospel team pro- .daros near Baltic. "Enthu'siatic reports from these students indicated a warm recep-tion and we thank these churches for extending to our groups their invitation, hospitality and gifts," said Isemenger. Dr. Orville Dahl Directs Drive for Funds for New Library by Dorothy Ann Ode In an historic meeting on Feb-ruary 12, the Augustana College Association Board of Directors adopted a plan to raise $200,000 in Sioux Falls to build a new li-brary for the college. This ,will be the beginning of a long-range development pro-gram which will guide the growth of the college through 1975. Dr. Orville Dahl, executive di-rector for the Division of Higher Education of the Evangelical Lu-theran church, will act as director of the Library Achievement fund. He is now in Sioux Falls organiz-ing the fund. Dr. Dahl is on leave of absence from his office in Min-neapolis. Gifts received through t h e drive, which is confined to the city, will be added to the $175,000 in the present library building fund for construction of the build-ing. The drive for funds was ap-proved at a meeting with the ex-ecutive committee of the Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce last fall. Present plans are to conduct the fund-raising effort this spring. Tom Kilian, public relations direc-tor, and Alma Roisum, assistant director, will act as publicity di-rector and office director for the drive. The new library will replace the present facility housed in the Old Main building. The present library has long since failed to meet the needs __of ..Augustana's _growing student body. Architect for the new library is Harold Spitznagel, designer of Tuve hall. Plans for the building are nearing completion. Spitznagel has studied a number of new libraries across the country, to incorporate the most modern and efficient features into the design. This building program may be called the Centennial Development program which is being planned around the college's impending centennial in 1960. It was de-veloped from the present college development program in Phase II. Phase II calls for the building of • a new women's dormitory (Tuve hall now complete) a new library at $440,00, a new men's dormitory, 56'75,000, and a new student Union building, $300,000. Phase II is expected to be com-pleted by 1960. Phase III, from 1960 to 1975, includes a chapel, a field house, a fine arts building, a music build-ing, and a permanent science building. Total cost of Phase III is estimated at $1,800,000. Other features of Phase II and III of the Centennial Development program include the improvement of faculty salaries, opportunities for study and research, pensions and other *faculty benefits; in-crease in the average student en-rollment; improvement of facili-ties for student health and medi-cal care; development of a more adequate campus social program and a special observance of the college centennial in 1960. Phase I of the original develop-ment program, already complete, included the development of the south campus (south 40), enlarge-ment of dormitory and dining fa-cilities and the addition of class-room• and laboratory space, im-provements on streets bordering the campus and general improVe-ments. Further details of the library fund and the library plan will be given in coming issues.
