‘Foward Step,” Says Griffeth of Theology, Arts College Merger
Dr. Baumgartel, New Church Federation Secretary,
Will Be in Office Monday; Jewish Groups Prepare for Chanukah Feast.
By EMMA RIVERS MILNER
“The merging of the undergra
duate department of the College of
Religion with the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Butler Uni-
versity is in line with the trend of
States,” “It is the realization of a long-
theological education in the United
Dean Frederick D. Kershner said today
range plan and a forward step,” Dr.
Ross J. Griffeth, head of the new department of religion, added.
Effective Next Year
The merger, one of the cevelop- |
ments of the administration of Dr.
Daniel S. Robinson. who was chosen
as president in May, is to go into effect at the end of the present school year (Dr. Robinson will speak at Church Woman's Day service tomorrow morning.) Dr. Kershner explained that during the entire 14 years of its existence the College of Religion has scheduled courses leading to an undergraduate degree in Sacred Literature and emphasized those leading to the graduate degrees of Bachelor of Divinity and Master of Theology.
‘Adequate Foundation’ “The new adjustment at Butler is
in accord with policies approved by
the American Association of Theological Schools. of which Butler College of Religion is a member,” he said. Most recognized theological | schools require either a college de- |
gree or some pre-theological college
training.
The purpose of the new depart-|
ment of religion in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences as described by Dr. Griffeth “will be to furnish adequate foundation for graduate religious study entering full-time Christian work and also to provide courses in religion which may be taken as cultural subjects by any student.”

An additional candle will be lighted each day in the temple until the feast is ended Chanukah is called a happy festival, of which games, gifts, special foods and gaiety are all a part. It will be the theme of all classes and organizations in local temples throughout the eight days. Sunday, Dec. 10, will be marked with special programs in both the Beth-El Ze-
deck Temple and the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation The Chanukah candle-lighting ritual is to commemorate the victory of the ancient Maccabean Jews over the would-be dictator, Epiphanes of Syria. It

Lutheran Pastors Balk At Social ‘Aloofness’
Ministers of the United Lutheran Church, including eight in Indianapolis and the vicinity, recommend
that the denomination abandon its | traditional non-committal attitude
toward social problems. “Through the years it has been the custom of the United Lutheran Church to preach Christian truth
and leave the settling of social prob- |
lems to individuals according to their interpretation of the truth” Dr. Homer E. Turney, Indiana United Lutheran Synod president. said today. The recommendation of an active
policy is in reply to a questionnaire
sent to ministers by the Board of Social Missions of the church Marriage and divorce, gambling, liquor control, indecent literature and demoralizing movies are among the problems listed by the ministers as needing attention from the pulpit. Others are war and peace, conscientious objection to war, race and industrial relations, minority blocs, foreign refugees, unempioyment and relief, and capital and labor.

Text: Matthew 10:24.39 By WILLIAM E.
GILROY, D. D.
Advance
EVERY GREAT movement of religion involves great responsibilities | and dangers as weil as blessings—especially if the movement is new or if |
it represents some newness of truth
or newness of its application. Disci-
pleship in the new movement inevitably involves sacrifices and it may
involve perils.
This was true in the beginnings of Christianity, good news concerning God's mercy
forth His disciples to proclaim the and human redemption had come to declare. It was necessary to remind the disciples that the disciple is not above his teacher, nor the servant above his lord. Those who were willing to accept Jesus as their Master and to serve Him must live by the rule of His own life. | They must expect to be misunderstood and reviled and persecuted: and it was necessary for Jesus to warn His disciples of the dangers that were before them. The disciple must live above fear, with the realization that even the destruction of his body mean nothing in comparison with the destruction of his soul. = = =
WAS IT WORTHWHILE for men to accept such sacrifices and to face such dangers? “Yes,” Jesus said, because of the profound value of (human life. God watches over the {fall of the sparrow, but the life of (a human being is infinitely more valuable than the life of a sparrow. In stern, strong words, {emphasizes the exacting nature of The very {proclamation of a gospel of love
[stirs up those whose lives are given |
lover to selfishness and hate. So Jesus, the Prince of Peace, uses the strange words that He came to send on earth “not peace, but a sword.” One must not interpret those words | too literally, for Jesus is the Prince of Peace and His Gospel is concerning the peace that could be! ‘ound among men if selfishness and hatred and the Just for power were | all cast out of human life. But
