Coach Mel Klein and assistant coach John Thomas lead the Vikings in a victory cheer after clinching the NCC basketball title last Friday. Convention tabs ASA nominees Jesse Cole and Jim Bradley Randy Kee and Lee Axdahl AUGUSTANA MIRROR Sioux Falls, South Dakota Vol. 61, No. 15 Thursday, Mar. 2, 1978 Vikings new NCC basketball champs By DOUG RAYNIE Sports editor With a pair of wins over the duo of North Dakota schools, the Augustana Vikings have won their first North Central Conference Basketball championship. Finishing with an 11-3 conference record, coach Mel Klein's Vikings represent the NCC this week in the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division II Midwest Regional Playoffs in Green Bay, Wisconsin. This is Augie's first outright NCC title. In 1962 the Vikings shared the title with Northern Iowa. Junior center Arvid Kramer was held to just 10 points as Augie bounced the North Dakota Sioux 65-44 last Saturday night at the Arena. Kramer ends the season with 266 points, second to University of South Dakota's Jeff Nannen with 267 in the league scoring race. Senior stalwart Greg Nagel pumped in 15 points and hauled down 22 rebounds for the Viking cause. Augie was completely in control on Friday at the Arena as the Vikings defeated North Dakota State 93-70 to take the league crown. Behind a strong front line and tight defense, the Vikings jumped to a 16-4 lead and a 52-31 half-time advantage. Kramer had in 28 points, 14 rebounds, two assists, and two blocked shots to lead the Vikings. Nagel added 22 points and 10 rebounds, and forward Paul Schenkelberg had 18 points, seven rebounds, and four assists. Shooting was a key for Augie. Kramer hit 11 of 18, Nagel 8-12, and Schenkelberg 9-9 as the Vikings went 63 percent from the field. Sophomore Steve Krier was held scoreless, but handed out nine assists. Freshman Mark Linde led the Bison with 23 points against a variety of defenses which limited NDS scoring star Paul Shogren to five points. By MARK MASER Campus events editor The Augustana College Drama Department will present its fourth production of the 1977-78 season Mar. 3-7 — German playwright Bertold Brecht's weighty drama, Mother Courage. The play is under the direction of Ron Robinson, assistant professor of English at Augustana. The cast is headed by Melody Jensen as Mother Courage. Other principles include Mark Stalheim and Nick Nelson as the chaplain and the cook, respec-tively. Beck Sulzdorf, Terry Eggers, and Jay Rumbles play the children. The cast is round-ed out with several other students playing minor roles: Jennifer Holt, Jon May, Pat Quillan, Pete Stadem, Scott Magnuson, Deb Swenson, Brad Hoppe, Craig Black and Jay Vogt. Brad Hoppe, who pleased audiences in the first semester production of Twelfth Night, plays several small parts in this more serious play. Hoppe, when asked about the progress of the drama, stated, "Mother Courage's message is timeless and the play can reach modern audiences with its gripping tale of the basic depravity of man. It's a commentary on the dis-aster and destruction of war. As for the overall production, things are looking up and we only have a few details to clear up. We have a fine cast and an efficient technical crew, so the performance should be quite professional." The technical crew is headed by Chuck Hayes, with Nick Nelsen helping to construct sets. The properties department is staffed by Emil Her Many Horses, Carol Tagatz, Phyllis Supernaut, and Donna Meyer. Lights with Chuck Hayes and special effects with Craig Black are providing a unique 3-D presentation, featuring slides similar to those seen in a recent Guthrie show. The piano score is being performed by David Surdez. Michele Dormeier, a sophomore who designed the Last Tuesday night, amid the clutter of campaign platforms and the whiz of paper airplanes, a tired group of ASA convention delegates nominated the teams of Jesse Cole/Jim Bradley and Lee Axdahl/Randy Kee to vie for the positions of ASA presi-dent and vice-president in next week's general election. The surprise of the conven-tion was the strong showing by the darkhorse candidates Cole and Bradley. Announcing their candidacy only a few hours before Tuesday night's session, costumes for Twelfth Night, is applying her talents to the Mother Courage costumes. When asked about the technical aspects of the production, Dormeier said, "Although not as elaborate as some plays, the costumes for Mother Courage are still challenging. Yet, they will add much to the general affect of the play. One of the more interesting aspects of this production is the use of special effects — the 3-D presentation of slides. Something new like this always makes for a more enjoyable show." Deb Swensen, who plays several small roles, is also the student director of this produc-tion. She is mainly the stage manager, and is responsible for the rehearsal schedule, memorization of lines, and blocking. Swensen said, "The play is very challenging, but the cast has worked hard to make it pull off. Much of the success will hinge on the audiences' reac-tion and participation." to page 8 Cole and Bradley swept to an easy victory on the second ballot. The teams of Axdahl/Kee, Ruth Bale/Gary Hawes and Cole/Bradley participated in the balloting process. No team was able to gather the needed ma-jority vote on the first ballot. The team of Cole/Bradley carried a decisive majority on the second ballot, garnering 136 out of 212 votes. On the third ballot, the team of Axdahl/Kee carried a majori-ty of 125 to 80 votes over the Bale/Hawes team. The candidate positions for ASA secretary and treasurer were not balloted because only one person was nominated for secretary and only two persons for treasurer. The only candidate for ASA secretary is Kris Kreiter. Run-ning for ASA treasurer are Greg Duerkson and Scott Van Hove. The candidates for council members were nominated on Monday night of the convention. The candidates for freshman council members include Laurie Fluke, Tami Paulin, Jay Pond and Maria Wyant. Two of these candidates will be elected to the ASA council in the general elec-tion. Eight persons are vying for the four sophomore council positions. These include Randy Dockendorf, Bob Fong, Jeff Hansen, James Hoegh, Jeff Lukens, Vicki Madsen, Noel McGe, and Lee Schoenbeck. Those persons running for the four junior council member openings include Greg Dehnert, Kirk Kolbo, Steve Lillehaug, Nate Norum, Dave Ring, Jim Sorvaag, Eric Stene and Deb Versteeg. The MIRROR regrets that because of deadline conflicts the nominated candidates can-not be interviewed before the Tuesday, Mar. 7, election. The MIRROR will provide election results and an in-depth review of the convention in the forthcoming Mar. 9 issue. Drama Dept. presents .. . Bertold Brecht's 'Mother Courage'
