Students Speak
Of Prayer In All-NU Service
The All-Universal Day of Pray
er for students was observed by
the University in an all-campus
service Sunday in the University
Episcopal Chapel.
Miss Jan Osborn, sponsor of
YWCA estimated that between
100 and 150 students attended the
service. She said that fouor five
student houses were well repre
sented. Miss Osborn added that
she thought the congregation was
good" but not a "complete"
representation of the University.
IN DIRECTING the service,
the Religious Welfare Council
tried a new experiment. Instead
of having a speaker from off cam
pus give the address, the coun
cil presented three University
students who spoke on the vari
ous aspects of prayer.
Don Hogg, a senior majoring
in philosophy, spoke on "The
Purpose of Prayer." In his mes
sage, Hogg emphasized the im
portance of not allowing the func
tionalism of one's life to become
a part of one's praying.

daily population of 90 and has

On Aspects
MARIE LINDGREN, a gradu
ate student in social work, spoke
on "The Nature of Prayer." She
said that prayer was more than
a means of thanking and petition
ing God; it was also the means
by which God directed the lives
of His petitioners.
In his message, "The Power of
Prayer," Dale Johnson said that
the power of prayer was the
"power to remove burdens from
the soul."
The order of service began with
an invocation and a hymn of
praise. The Litany of Confession
and the Prayer of Thanksgiving
followed.
PRAYERS of intercession were
given to "bring before God the
needs of the students of the
world." The benediction asking
that the fellowship of the Holy
Ghost be with the student, end
ed the program.
University students directed
and conducted the entire service.
Jack Rogers, chairman of the Re
ligious Welfare Council commit
tee, presided over the service.

(Neil Unsrer, University radio
major, has had for many years
one ambition to be a disc
jockey.
Like many students, he has
certain ideas concerning his fu
ture life.
Here, for all prespective disc
jockeys, or for any student hav
ing thouffhts about his future, is
an amusing speculation about a
desired career.)
When people die, there is
usually a lot of publicity. You
read about it in the newspaper
or perhaps hear it over the ra
dio or television. I wonder how
many people realize that people
"die" every day without one
line of notice in the newspaper
or one word on the airways.
The disc jockey is one of
these unlucky few. This talc
relates futility of the situation
of this poor soul, the Radio
Disc Jockey.
Twelve to four are the hours
when most of the human race
are blissfully and peacefully
pounding their ears. But not
our little man, who is hard at
work at the local station. Very
often he is the only living ob
ject there, and if by chance you
happen to get lost and wander
up to our dear little friend's
studio, you would find him
"hard" at work trying to keep
awake.
" HIS DESK is always in sham
bles. He wouldn't feel at home
if it weren't. A pot of black
coffee is steaming near by and
a bunch of scribbled notes
la ughingly called commercials
are in front of him (though I
doubt if he could read them if
it weren't for the coffee at his

Once there was a Sophomore who
had a Sister. He also had a Girl. As
Coincidence would have it, both fe
males labored under the Baptismal
Handicap of Ermintrude. Small world.
The sister (call her Ermintrude I for
the record) got married, in due proc

fraternal-like. Our Boy sat down and
wrote her a Letter of Congratula

Baby ..." Only trouble was, he for
got to mail it. Went of! for the Week
end, leaving it on his desk, where his
Roommate spotted it.
The latter, being The Soul of Honor,
didn't read any farther than the lead

"Dear Ermintrude." Jumping at a

ords, piled rather high.
The four hour extravaganza
usually consists of coffee, rec
ords, commercials, coffee, com
mercials, coffee, records, and
still more coffee.
Yet, even more interesting is
this happy man's clientel. Most
of them are insomniacs, who are
trying to keep their minds
blank.
MOTORISTS who are trying
to stay awake tune in our old
friend, the Disc Jockey,. And
what does he play? "Sleepy
Time Gal," "I'll See You in My
Dreams," and "Dream and Mu
sic" with a real "solid" beat to
it. Now what happens? One
dead motorist.
For the most part nobody
bothers him and he doesn't
bother them. I said, "for the
most part." However, there
are times when peculiar things
occur. Occasionally people tel

AS THE HOUR of four ap

slowly, he says the magic words,
"It is time for our theme." He
picks up his coat and hat, and

He starts for home through th

The sun is peeking its orange;
head above the skyline as ha

arid makes his way up to his

he wonders if it is all worth it.
