who delighted and astounded large
audiences with their gymnastic
ability a couple of months ago,
have been on the go ever since
they left cities of the Pacific
Northwest, they Travelled by train
to Omaha, and went from there to
a large number of midwestern and
eastern cities in a chartered Grey
hound bus, chalking up one grand
success after another as they went
along :. Their leader in the Mid
west, Mr. Herman c. Nelson,
wrote as follows about their visit
to Minnesota: II managed to get
the girls received by Governor Lu-
Their W. Youngdahl at the Mime
sofa State Capitol Monday after
noon. They sang to him and then
the Governor sang "Halsa dem
darhemma' Greet the folks at
home) to the girls. By that time
some of the legislators had spied
the girls and they insisted that
/ take them to the Senate where
they were presented and also to
the House where the girls sang
two songs. A large part of the
legislators, being Swedish or
Norwegian, sang with them to
make a very unusual scene" =.
1t must have been an unusual
scene, don't you think =.
After successful visits to Rock
ford and Chicago MAY 10 and 20),
the troupe was invited to the Swe-
dish Embassy in Washington on

Picnics Slated

Two big Scandinavian picnics
are scheduled at Vasa Park, Lake
Sammamish, this month.
The Scandinavian Fraternity Of
America is sponsoring a Scandin-
avian Day picnic at the park Sun
day, June II. A program will DE
presented.
The annual Swedish Midsummer
festival will be held Saturday and
Sunday, June % and "a at the
park. AS usual. an elaborate pro-
gram is scheduled and Sundays
event is expected to attract
thousands of people. There will
be dancing both nights. More on
this in the next-issue.

or two semesters during the reg
ular. school year. At least two
thirds of the work must be in edI-
cation courses and a thesis is re-
CURED.
AS a starting point under the
new program minor studies will be
offered in the departments of BIZ
ology, chemistry, economics and
business administration, English,
history, music, sociology and
speech.
Commenting on the addition of
this new degree, Dr. S. c. Eastwood,
president, stated that many new
courses have been added to the
curriculum and new personnel en-
gagged for the summer ses sion
faculty to make this program
available.
Scandinavian American. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1945-1958, 1951-06-04

The addition of new courses in
the curriculum to make this pro-
gram available will begin with the
first term of the summer session
which starts June II.
Candidates for this new degree
at PIC will concentrate their
study in the field Of education.
The emphasis will be either on
courses planned primarily for ele-
mentary or high school classroom
teachers or on courses designed
for those wishing to go into adj
ministration, supervision or per-
sonnet work.
A graduate of any accredited
college or university may be ac-
copied for admission to graduate
study at PIC if his undergraduate
record is satisfactory. The candi-
date must have better than av-
erage record in general education
and superior record in the fields
of specialization in which he wish
es to concentrate in his graduate
work, states DR.. Philip E. Hauge,
dean and registrar.
General requirements to receive
the masters degree in education
include a minimum OF 80 semester
hours of work with an average
grade of B. These credits may be
earned in three summer sessions

Though he's really an "Irish-
man., Tom Kelly will make the
grade in Scandinavian languages
any day. . :.
Majoring in that field at the I'm
iversity of Washington, Kelly is
taking his masters degree this
quarter - His thesis - an Eng
lish translation of the Swedish
play "Strandernas Svall" with an
S0-page criticism - has a partic-
ular significance, at least from a
Swedish viewpoint For the
author, Eyvind Johnson, who based
the 3-act play on his best-selling
novel of the same name, published
in 1916, is one of Sweden's fore
most writers, still unknown to the
American public . Kelly's work
may help do a little more justice
to Johnson in this country. and as
for johnson at his best. this trans
lation may. bring it out -. /.
"Strandernas Svall' is based on
THE Odyssey" but the interpre-
tation skilfully bears out similar
tiles with modern political thought
:. this is major Swedish ac-
complishment which A mer c a
should know about.

Lutheran Church
In Seattle Plans
S450,OOO Building

The congregation of Gethsemane
Lutheran Church, oldest Lutheran
group in Seattle, approved plans
for a S45O,OOO church building and
parish unit.
The Rev. Theodore Palmer, pas
tor, said construction is planned
to begin March 1, 1852. =. The
church will be built at the site of
the present church, Ninth Avenue
and Stewart Street, which will be
RACED.
Building plans were submitted
by members of the building COM
mittee. They include DR.. G. A.
Magnusson, Miss Elaine LeVeau,
John Nelson, Harry Liden, Emil
w. Anderson and Mr.. Palmer as
eX-officio member.
A finance committee was chosen
to organize a fund drive. Members
are Eric Hurnblad, Albert Olson,
Earl Blomberg, David j. Asplund,
Leonard A. Olson, G. A. Wall
strom and Darwin Carr.
Mr.. Palmer said the congrega-
ton has set a goal of 40 per cent
of the cost before construction
will start. The church has $50, 900
in liquid assets.
Gethsemane Church was organ
lied February 4, 1886. Its first
location was at Third Avenue and
Pine Street. Its present church is
90 years old. Architectural plans
were drawn by j. Emil Anderson,
a member of the firm of Young
& Richardson, Carleton & Detlie.

MORSE HOME SCOOP OR
RUMOR?

Another Morse rumOr, buzzing
hereabouts, is that Morse Home
Inc, proponents of a model rest
home in Seattle, plans to buy a
5O-room apartment building to be
used for the purpose :. folks say
it can be had for $25O,0OO which
would mean a substantial saving
compared to the elaborate building
the corporation planned to erect
for twice that price . if this is
true, we will not vouch for it -
but it is actually being discussed
Morse Home could become a
reality at least by next year, per-
haps sooner :. =.
Gordon Ekvall Tracie. leader and
founder of Seattle's Scandal Folk
dancers of Sweden-touring fame,
is still in Stockholm where he has
the novel experience of teaching
now having made about 20 trips
to various parts of Sweden for the
purpose He is also teaching
Swedish folk dances to members
of the American legation in Stock
holm quite an experience for
the likeable Seattle lad of Swedish
descent, who is expected to return
to Seattle next fall.
Dick Sackstetter and Barbara
Steele, both members of the Uni
versity Scandal team that toured
Sweden last year, were married
recently at Unitarian Church in
Seattle Scandinavian folk mu-
sic comprised dancing afterwards
and the wedding cake featured a
couple of miniature dolls in Swe-
dish costume . this is the third
romance that prospered from the
Swedish tour.
