the augustana college MIRROR sioux falls, south dakota Concert Choir Concludes '74 Tour Season Augustana Concert Choir members spent their interim on a western tour giving numerous public performances. (Photo by Paul Ostrem.) Mr. Helland has announced a rise in fuel costs from about 11 cents a gallon last year to the current rate of slightly above 25 cents this year. Additional fuel tanks will be purchased to better the appor-tionment of Augie's fuel supplies, increasing storage capacity from one week's supply to one month's supply.

"However," the Task Force reported, "while things look fair-ly good at the moment, such savings as we have already ac-complished have to be carried on on a continual basis. ag 56 /Po. 14, ASA Nominating Convention To Be Held Feb. 20-22 In less than a week, political maneuvering will be the prime interest of one-fifth of the Augustana Student Body. The annual ASA Nominating Convention, Feb. 20-22, features the traditional lobbying, speeches, and points of order of past conventions. One of the convention highlights will be a nationally known keynote speaker. The convention will in turn be one of the highlights of Political Science Emphaisi Day, a UBG Student Development Board project for area high school students. The convention will begin Wednesday afternoon at 1:30. Delegates will begin the conven-tion process by accepting, chang-ing, and amending the floor rules. This year's floor rules for-mulated by the judicial corn-mittee, have some new, and possibly controversial changes. One is a concession to the yearly conflict between on- and off-campus factions about delegate attendance rules and proxy selection. The rules, as they now stand would allow off-- campus delegates to choose an on-campus proxy if an off-cam-pus one is impossible to find. The convention officials have also added strict time enforce-ment rules for nominating, seconding and acceptance speeches, in the hope that the convention time can be cut. After the floor rules have been accepted the delegates will get on to the real business of the con-vention, the selection of can-didates for ASA council positions. The delegates will select two candidates for each of the freshman council positions, and four candidates for the men's and women's sophomore Task Force Augustana's emergency task force has recommended that there be no further interruption in the heating of water for this winter because "it now appears that for the short run we have sufficient fuel." But a Task Force report stress-ed that "the total community, including faculty, administra-tion, and particularly the stu-dent body to do what they can on a voluntary basis to effect savings in hot water." The Task Force requested that dorm residents observe the council positions. If there is time the junior positions will also be considered during the conven-tion's first session. The second day of the conven-tion, beginning at 6:30 p.m., will be devoted to the four can-didates for the junior men's and women's positions and selection of officer candidates. Presiden-tial and vice-presidential can-didates will be considered Friday night beginning at 6:30 p.m. Throughout the convention resolutions may be introduced, except during nominating periods, and delegates may even be faced with some rules of order controversies like those that slowed the convention process last year. Parliamentarian Craig Anderson, a freshman debater who attended the national Stu-dent Congress last year, will make the procedure decisions. Co-Chairpersons Dave Lillehaug and Ruth Bylander will lead the convention assisted by the personnel in the judicial, credentials and election com-mittees. Both Nikki Johannsen and Dawn Christensen will return as the convention secretaries. Although no one has officially tossed their hat into the presidential ring, rumor has it that Anna Harare, Carol Hansen, Curt Roggow, Bill Bent-zinger, and Paul Westby are can-didates for the nomination. Milt Wieland, the only Augie student who had officially declared his intentions, (last fall), has left Augustana. The convention happenings will be covered by KAUR and the Mirror for those who do not attend. However, there will be room for observers in addition to the delegates, candidates and lobbists who will attend. following: —no more than four or five minute showers —avoid showering on intense-ly cold mornings because of add-ed pressure on the heating system —avoid showers between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. because that is when the heating plant is most loaded. The reason for the above suggestions was cited as the fact that when the heating plant runs at above normal capacity, it is less efficient in its use of fuel. Dr. Olaf G. Malmin will direct the Augustana College Concert Choir in the presentation of its annual home concert at 3:00 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 17, at First Lutheran Church. The program will be the same as that per-formed at 19 sites during a three week January tour through North Dakota, Montana, Washington, Oregon, California, Utah and Colorado. The choir's program for its 1974 tour season consists of four parts, all of which will be sung during Sunday's concert. The 63-voice mixed ensemble will sing selections by Sweelinck, Gabrieli, Johann Schein, Poulenc, Karl Graun, Normand Lockwood, an arrangement by Roger Petrick of "Ah, Holy Jesus," and "Lord, In Thy Resurrection," a motet for dou-ble choir by Jacobus Gallus. Following an intermission, Tenor Todd Sulzdorf, baritone Bruce Becker, Dave Versteeg, bass, and soprano Shirlene Peterson will be featured in the performance of Lloyd Pfautsch's "A Day for Dancing." Miss Peterson was chosen a winner in the Metropolitan Opera Auditions held recently at Aber-deen for this region. Instrumen-tal accompaniment will be fur-nished by four of the choir's singers — flutist Barb Johnson, clarinetist Nancy Muller, bassoonist Mary Beth Savage and percussionist Robert Collins. The final section of the program will again feature Becker as soloist as the choir sings the Shaw-Parker arrange-ment of "My God Is a Rock." Also in the final section are corn-positions by Randall Thompson and an arrangement of "Amaz-ing Grace" by Leland Sateren. Excellent facilities, audience enthusiasm and full houses at most tour stops were high points of the choir's tour. By consensus, the highlight concert was the one given at Tacoma, hometown of Dr. Malmin. The concert was given in Trinity Lutheran Church which is just across the street from Pacific Lutheran Universi-ty which Malmin attended and where he sang in the choir under the direction of his father, Prof. Gunnar Malmin who led that choir for 27 years. The audience there was liberally sprinkled with his friends, relatives and college classmates. Packed houses were experienc-ed at Seattle and Bellingham, Wash.; Eugene and Silverton, Ore.; and Sacramento and San Jose, Cal., with overall atten-dance setting new records. At San Jose the choir was a part of the dedication service for the new St. Timothy's Lutheran Church. Suggests Ways to Save Energy Regents Make Decisions Concerning ROTC, Budget, Academic Affairs The Augustana Board of Regents have decided against the implementation of an Army ROTC program at Augustana, at least for the present time. The Regent's decision followed a great deal of discussion concer-ning the pros and cons of such a program, long a controversial issue at Augie. The next meeting of the Board of Regents will be May 6-7, 1974, when the Augustana College Association will hold its annual meeting on the campus. A tentative budget for fiscal 1974-75 of just under $6 million was approved by the board dur-ing its regular winter meeting. A full time, salaried director posi-tion of the Augustana Research Institute was approved by the board. The Institute is a non-profit corporation created for the purpose of providing contract research and technical services to the region on a financially sustained basis. Reports were heard concerning current fiscal conditions, projec-tions for upcoming years and the college's status relative to the energy crisis. In the area of academic affairs, the board took action on a number of faculty leave requests, several promotions and the gran-ting of tenure to several faculty members. A report concerning the establishment of an Augustana Center for Internship Education at the college under a grant from the Hill City founda-tion was received. Also approved was the es-tablishment of "The Regents Medal" to recognize distinguish-ed or unusual achievement by individuals or organizations in service to mankind, in educa-tion, religion, public affairs, research service, or in any field where such efforts have made a notable contribution to the im-provement of the quality of life for mankind or his material, moral or spiritual ad-vancement."
