February 27, 1953 Augustana College, SIOUX FALLS, S. D VOL. XXXIV — NO. 19 What's the big attraction? What's the hue and cry ? It's suppott for L. S. Action So don't you let it by Come on Kids, and join the tus-sIe To meet this Foal Well have to hustle! Foreign Student Drive. Rev J. N. Otte Dr. Rolf Syrdal LSAction Drive, Mission Set Higher Goal Because 'We Can Do No Less' We Dare Not Do Less is the theme of the LSAction and •Foreign Student Service drive, which is under the auspices of the Au-gustana LSA. This drive began Thursday, February 26, with Verlyn Smith, Augie alumnus, as the kickoff speaker at the chap-el exercises. Doug Lindgren is the chairman of this drive for funds which will continue until Friday, March 6. During the week 100 stu-dent solicitors will contact every student and faculty member at Augustana. These student solicitors had their pledge ays Emphasize orld Needs Missionaries Represent any Lutheran Fields One Whole in Christ is the theme of the Mission Emphasis days beginning Sunday, March 1, and ending Tuesday, March 3. Speakers for the event will be Rev. J. N. Otte, Zululand, Africa; Dr. Rolf Syrdal, Mis-sion Executive Secretary; Rev. Conrad Hal-verson, Madagascar; Rev. Arthur Anderson, Sudan, Africa. Mission days will open at Study and Action at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday with Rev. Conrad Halverson as the featured speaker. Devotion will be conducted by Mary Ander-son and music by John Lundering and kick-off meeting, Wednesday, February 25. The goal has been set at $1800, and in order to succeed, each stu-dent at Augie must contribute at least $3. Of this $1800 the foreign stu-dent service will need $700. The foreign student is entirely depen-dent upon student support. Regu-larly Augustana included only one student under this fund, but this year Augie has two students from Berlin, Germany, Peter Gerish and Martin Grossmann. The immediate g o a 1 for LSAction is $1100. This fund en-ables Augie students to participate in a small way on an international basis. "Last year Augie topped all schools in the region in our gifts, and although to be first again is not our goal, we must do our part," urged Lindgren. "This is the only big drive of the entire year at Augustana. Be-cause of the idealism behind the drive, with the maximum interest of each of us I feel that we shall not fail in our endeavor," said the chairman. There is an affinity between Mission Emphasis week and this LSA solicitation. It is notable that this drive is being carried on dur-ing the week that the missionaries will be on the Augie campus. The two slogans for this Chris-tian drive are "You are your brother's keeper", and in the face of difficult world conditions "We Dare Not Do Less." The fund is broken down into various money allotments. As stated previously, $700 goes to the foreign student service. The in-ternational aid gets $310. This in-cludes inter-denominational aid to India and Indonesian Student fund, Africa and Palestine Stu-dent fund, German Student Chris-tian Movement (east and west zone), money to train ministers in Yugoslavia, and to train teachers and workers in Tanganyika, Af-rica. T h e Ecumenical movement, which is inter-denominational co-operation between churches, gets $470 from this drive. This move-ment includes the United Student Christian council and the World Student Christian f e der a t i o n, which coordinates student Chris-tian movements in 50 countries. The allotment is $310 for serv-ices at home which includes opera-tional costs, leadership, publica-tions and administrations. All Augie students are urged to meet this challenge presented by the LSAction drive. Mandt(ompEetes'Dulcyi Cast The curtain will open next March 16 on the Little Theatre's latest production, Dulcy.
