Fund Raising Marathon The dramatic impact of youth at work in a community project was evident at Nativity Lutheran church in Wonder Lake Saturday, July 21, when the young generation of Nativity members produced a volleyball marathon to help raise funds for the church debt retirement fund. This unique fund raising project was organized by Mrs. Donna Peterson and assisted by Miss Peggy Peterson, in­ volving thirty-two volunteer volleyball players. Each volunteer player obtained "sponsors" or "backers" who would pledge a donation for each hour the player managed to remain in the marathon. The marathon started at 8 a.m. under cloudy skies with a large group of determined players, four of whom "sur­ vived" the ordeal for the full 12- hdur period. These four in­ cluded Mrs. Donna Peterson, Roger Thacker, Joey Hansen and Carol Gabel. Most of the other players managed to stay for a little less than the total period. Although the group en­ countered some rain for a brief time in the morning, this did not deter their efforts to remain as long as possible and collect more funds for the debt retirement fund. It wat^fodged a memorable day for the Nativity congregation and demon­ strated the power of youth in organizing and carrying through a worthy project. To date, approximately $400 will be turned over to the church debt retirement fund.

Mettelka believes the early childhood education profession he is entering is "at least three to four years ahead of its time." He first had thought of com­ pleting an English major, then got involved in deaf education and wound up in early childhood education. His answer to a few people who teased him a little when he first got involved with the home economics program was quite to the point. "I viewed what I 0was doing as being involved in male liberation," he recalls smiling. Actually, the course was a requirement for his field, Early Childhood Education. This summer Mettelka is teaching children with learning disabilities and developmental handicaps at Chileda Institute, a private school at Stevens Point, Wis.
