THE UMD STATESMAN •

you CAN' T DRAF T GOD We were reading an exchange paper from a Minnesota college

the other day. I n a n editorial on the many college boys being drafted and enlist ing the editor said, i n effect, that we, w i t h our resources and a l l of these fine men on our side, would certainly v/ in the K o r e a n war. Her c l inch ing argument was "Besides, God is on our side."

T h e egotism of that statement is rather shocking. Doesn't she know that you can't draf t God?

No one wouid say that they believe that God is w i t h the C o m -munis t nations. B u t why do we conclude that because God is not w i t h the Communists He is w i t h us? We must f i rst make our-selves and our cause worthy of his aid.

As A b r a h a m L i n c o l n said, " I t is not God's being on our side that is important , but our being on His side."

When we look at this nat ion and this people who c la im that God is on our side, we wonder i f He s t i l l is. I t is apparent that a l l too often we do not act as i f we were a C h r i s t i a n nat ion. I f God is w i t h the country i t is not because of anyth ing we have done. Too many<t)f us haven 't even asked H i m for His protection during these perilous times.

B u t we are encouraged when we t h i n k of the smal l group of senators who meet regularly i n the Senate dining room for prayer. T h e y are asking H i m .

I f the people of the United States w i l l follow the example of this smal l group of leaders and let God into their everyday lives, then we can say w i t h surety, "God is on our side."

jors as eager beavers, yet these young ladies arise at 6:30 a. m., rush to St . Luke ' s cafeteria for breakfast , have 8:00 a. m. classes in Main , and trek to the Science building to spend many hours poring over micro -.scopes, test tubes, and frogs.

One wonders whether they wi l l develop I l s a K o c h tenden-cies from studying pickled pork-ers and pi'.es of bones.

When their sessions i n bac -T ,

THE LIGH T FLASHE S and the nurs e on duty goes to answe r i t . . . Her e Studen t Nuis e Anni e Sal e puts her knowledg e to use unde r the supervisio n of Instructo r Doroth y Cushey . —(Phot o by Moron. )

phizz, and chem are done here, they have classes a t the hos-pi ta l in medical , surgical , and communicable diseases, chi ld care and psychiatry . T h e y work one day a week-end wi th bed-pans, t rays , giving baths and back-rubs ; spending eight hours a day on their feet to get or -iented and fami l iar ized w i th the procedure.

However, a l l is not work and no play. T h e y have a choir wh i ch has given many programs and been on a radio broadcast. T h e girls partic ipate i n sales, give coffees, dinners and dances. T h e y also publish their own newspaper and yearbook.

At 10:30 p. m. i t is l ights out and the R e x Morgan fans have time to dream of three years hence when they w i l l be regis -tered nurses or maybe commis-sioned as l ieutenants. Be good to them, men ; you might be saying " s i r ! " to them i n the near future.

W h y do these girls want to become nurses? There are as many reasons as there are girls, but there is a n almost u n a n i -mous desire to serve, to a l l e -viate suffering, and as Rhoda Zehe expressed i t , " through our lives perhaps to leave a l i t t le bit of good done i n th is world . "

Let ' s w i sh these budding Florence Nightingales g o o d luck !

How To Survive A Bustard Attack B y D I C K H E I M

F i r s t of a l l I imagine I must establish jus t what a bustard is . There has been an insidious plot afoot, for quite some time now, to deceive the public into be-l ieving the dastardly bustard is a member of the Booby fami ly . T h i s is a treacherous bare-faced lie and any self-respecting booby w i i l te l l you so. Boobies are swimming sea birds of the Sulidae fami ly while bustards are game birds of the Otidae family .

I have no idea who the i n -stigator of th is malicious scheme is but, he, she or they (maybe even i t ) has thrown the P e n t a -gon into a tizzy. Congress has threatened to close every bean-bag court in the Pentagon u n t i l this foul fiend is found and beat to death w i t h a truncheon.

Those c la iming to be i n the know are convinced the Reds are to blame. I don't mean the magenta fushia or even the

scarlet Reds ; I mean the R e a l Reds, the Maroons! ! B u t I digress.

T h e problem at hand is how to survive a n attack of boobies — I beg your pardon! I mean Bustards . ( I could very easily be banned from the Audubon society for t h a t ) . I hear belches of skepticism from the disbe-lievers and I would l ike to w a r n you that it 's your i l l -bred burps against a seismograph report. J u s t wai t t i l l one of those bel -ligerent bustards lands on you. Our radar technic ians w i i l pick up the advance of any foreign bustards and a n immediate w a r n i n g w i l i be issued so that you w i i l have time to follow these few simple rules :

(1) I f you are standing out i n the open, t u r n your back as the granny rays w i l l give you bustard burns.

(2) I f you are b r o w s i n g around a greenhouse at the t ime of a n attack, lay face down i n a tul ip bed and pul l a geranium

pot snugly over your head (not forgetting the hole i n the top w i t h your left index f inger ) .

(3) I f you are i n school when the bustards at tack and death seems inevitable, dash to the l i -brary and read a n economics book. I t w i i l bore you to death before the bustards reach you.

(4) I f you are i n W a s h b u r n h a l l , stay where you are. B u s -tards are repelled by f i l t h .

(5) I f you are f o r t u n a t e enough to be able to fraternize w i t h the bustards, refer them to the bookstore where they w i l l be looted c lean of a l l but their tokas feathers.

(6) I f a i i else fa i l s , dash to your auto, scrape the p a r k i n g tickets from the window and drive madly for the Science Bui ld ing . Bustards loath m a k -ing t ranscont inenta l f l ights i n the Arct i c regions.

Now you have the key to longevity but remember to avoid panic . P a n i c h a s ki l led more people t h a n bustards.

YOUR CAREER ' SERIE S — No. 6

Oil Geologist s Needed Abroa d Those who are attracted by

the possibility of a career i n pure or applied science should give thoughtful consideration to the practice of geology as a pro-fession. " I n the world's never-ending search for oil , petroleum geology especially offers great opportunities," according to Dr . Robert L . Heller, assistant pro-fessor of geology here.

W h a t some of these opportu-nities are, and how to prepare for them are discussed i n the following analysis by E d C u n -n i n g h a m and Leonard Reed i n their booklet, " Y o u r Career , " published by S imon and S c h u s -ter.

Y o u r Outlook

V I T A L S T A T I S T I C S : Now more t h a n 7,000 pract ic ing ge-ologists, a n increase of about 3,000 over 1940 total . About 1,500 students preparing for the field.

T H E F U T U R E : Postwar m a n -power shortage now largely a l -leviated, although expansion i n foreign fields is m a k i n g new jobs for U . S. geologists. A m e r -i can oil companies had 17 b i l -l ion barrels of foreign oil r e -serves i n 1945, compared to 20 bil l ion barre l reserves i n this country.

R E G I O N A L L Y : Texas , C a l i -fornia , Lou is iana , Oklahoma, and K a n s a s are the five leading oil-producing states.

Y o u Do

T h e petroleum geologist e x -plores for petroleum and n a t -u r a l gas through f ield a n d l a b -oratory study of oi l -producing fegions. He also makes p r e l i m -i n a r y cost estimate of develop-ing a field a n d the value of i ts deposit. A f ter test ing wel l s a m -ples, he advises production de-partment on dr i l l ing depths, where well casings should be

set, w h a t methods are needed to control flow of oil , gas, and water . F i e l d work and research usual ly combined, w i t h about h a l f t ime devoted to lab or of-fice work for the examinat i on of samples, preparat ion of r e -ports, and the study of sc ien-ti f ic l i terature .

Y o u Need E D U C A T I O N : B . S . degree is

m i n i m u m requirement, w i t h M. S. or M . A. necessary for pro -fessional background. P r o f i c i e n -cy i n foreign language he lp fu l , both for work abroad and for reading scientif ic l i terature .

E X P E R I E N C E : T h r e e years ' experience necessary for f u l l professional recognition.

P E R S O N A L : P h y s i c a l s t a m i n a for outdoor work ; abi l i ty to live w i t h a n d lead m e n ; t h r e e - d i -mensional view of earth 's s truc -ture ; aptitude for induct ive rea -soning; acute powers of obser-vation and imaginat ion.

Bulldogs Divide Two On Road Trip

B y A R N E M O I L A N E N T h e batt l ing Bulldogs, seeking

a f irst division f in i sh I n the M I A C , split a two-game road tr ip , defeating St . Olaf, 63-61, and losing to S t . Mary 's , 78-67.

U M D - S t . Mary's T h e Bulldogs employed a

modified zone defense I n an ef-fort to h a l t St . Mary 's scoring aces, P a u l S a u f I and J o h n R u h n k e , but the strategy failed as the Redmen handed U M D their t h i r d conference defeat.

Bruce Paulson and Capta in P a u l Nace paced the Buiidogs, scoring f i fteen and fourteen points, respectively.

U M D - S t . Olaf Pug Norlander led the B u l l -

dogs to the w i n wi th a 21-point scoring outburst, but It was r e -liable B U I Chrlstensen who stole the show.

Chrlstensen doubled as a de-fensive and offensive ace i n checking the Die's Doug J o h n -son to a lone char i ty toss while scoring fourteen points himself .

T h e victory was the Bulldogs' th i rd I n conference play.

Every team has a dependable p laymaker , able to set up a score for a teammate. S i x foot one W i l l i a m Henry Chrlstensen, ha i l ing from Two Harbors, Is according to Coach Isenbarger, probably not a n especially f lashy courtman to the fans, but a mighty handy " team m a n " to have around. No other member of the U M D basketball team can " touch" B U I when I t comes to t o ta l -ing up the "assists for baskets" so far th is season.

A n apt pupil of Cy Magnusson, and former teammate of P u n k y K e r n a n (recently of Ma in U fame) , C h r i s was a n outstanding H i g h School athlete at the Agate City from 1943 through 1945.

Let ters came easily to h i m I n football, basketball and track . He captained the purple and white gridders and cagers dur -ing h is senior year. Dur ing the 1945 Distr i c t Tournament , he led the North Shore five to the Distr i c t championship, at the same time winn ing indiv idual honors as a n AU-dls tr i c t a n d Ai l - reg lonal guard.

Fol lowing H S graduation BUI spent some time I n the armed forces almost a year of it I n F r a n k f o r t , Germany . As a freshman at Gustavus Adolphus in 1947, B U I won his numera l , and since enroll ing here at the B r a n c h has collected three golden Ms.

At twenty-three , capable Chrlstensen Is the "old m a n " of the squad. A good student, major ing I n P h y E d w i t h a history minor, modest B i l l hopes to begin his coaching and teaching I n some smal l town.

What Others Tell Vs Dear Edi tor :

Who ever heard of a team wi th only road tr ips , and only three or four at t h a t ? ? ? Wel l , that 's the U M D hockey team di lemma. Not only that , b m here In town the U M D B r a n c h has Its chance to really pro-mote hockey. Since the D u l u t h team has folded, the Cur l ing club is available to a l l comers. T h e h igh schools have jumped at this chance and are doing wel l .

We understand Provost K i n g wanted to " p u s h " hockey here at U M D . I t was—pushed r ight out the hack door. T h e m a i n objection has been funds. W h y cut a vars i ty sport and keep a " B " basketball team t r a v e l -ing???

W h e n the organizational meeting was held In Minneap-olis, our hockey team wasn ' t even represented by a hockey man . T h i s seems to be a gross neglect on the athletic depart -ment's par t !

T h e cost of one home game is f a r below any other sport i n

school requir ing a n outside site. Y E T , s t i l l no home games ! ! ! T h e fact is , i t doesn't seem too much effort was put forth to try and get home games—might mean some e x t r a work for someone.

Speaking for the hockey team, we feel hockey hasn ' t even been given a chance I n a time when m a n y opportunities are I n the offing.

Yours tru ly , E D B E R R Y ,

Representing U M D Hockey Squad.
