Protestant churches in the United States are more closely united today than they have been since the Reformation in the 16th century, the Rev. J. Ogden Hoffman. Jr., told a group of Hillel members Wednesday, March 22.
Realizing the conflict that had existed between the churches in the past and the conflict that exists today, the church leaders of the world are attempting to bring the churches together through the World Council of Churches, he claimed.
Success is Uniting
“Thus far we have been fairly successful,” the Rev. Hoffman said. The churches now work together in their newly established welfare organization to help the needy here and abroad, he commented.
“Although closer relationships among the churches are still : needed and desired.” said Hoffman. “we have made great steps ' toward a better understanding of each other in the past few-years.”
Explains Events
The Rev. Mr. Hoffman, priest of the Protestant Episcopal Church of Los Angeles and professor of Protestantism at USC. explained to his audience the ¡ events leading up to the estab- ; lishment of the Protestant religion and how this beginning has effected the churches’ present-day policy, “an attempt to cover a semester’s lecture in 30 minutes.” as the Rev. Mr. Hoffman put it.
He explained that humanistic ideas of the Renaissance brought with them seeds of discontent w ith the Roman church. Humanists criticized the abuse of the clergy and urged Church reform by instigating a twofold investigation.
First, they applied critical scholarship to the vast library of Christian documents and litera ture.
Problem Raised
Second, they raised the problem of the individual’s relation- , ship to the Church. These two measures helped set off the chain of events which led eventually to the Protestant Revolt.
In the meantime, the church itself was badly weakened from the Babylonian Captivity and the Great Schism and its failure to reform the internal structure of the Church was soon to lead it to disaster.
Throughout the 11th century the cries against Church corruption became louder.
In England. John Wycliff, who is considered the dawn-star of the Protestant Revolt, asserted
Rowland Lands Sophomore Post i In Close Contest
By H.\L DRAKE
Assistant City Editor
Business Senator Hugh Helm walked away with the ASSC presidency in a special runoff election yesterday, gaining almost two to one margin over opponent Chris Appel.
Helm, currently president pro tempore of the ASSC i Senate, received 922 votes to a total of 580 for basketball player Appel .
More than 1.500 students turned out for the runoff, 200 more than officials had estimated.
The Sophomore Class vice president runoff was won by Bonnie Rowland with a total of 189 votes. In the hu-

The tie for pharmacy secretary-treasurer was broken in the runoff by Beverly Wong, who gathered 97 votes.
Notified of his victory. Helm promised that he would carry out the reforms noted in his campaign platform.
“After experience of one year under the new ASSC constitution, it is time to make the necessary changes that could only have been discovered through practice,” Helm said.
Explaining that the basic form of the present student government will not be changed during his administration, Helm listed several areas that he will attempt to modify.
“During the past year we have seen the need for improved communication within student government and between student government and the students,” Helm declared.
“The cumbersome red tape of the present system must also be eliminated to improve student government's efficiency,” he added.
Helm, who will not officially take office until the end of April, said that the essence of his program is establishment ot an active student voice on campus.
“Without a strong, representative voice to advance the aims and ideals of the student body, we will never be able to revitalize the ASSC into an effective organization,” he explained.
“We must show the students that their government is working in their interest before the students will give their interest to their government,” he continued.
Basketball player Chris Appel was unavailable for comment during the long afternoon of voting.
Elections Commissioner Art Kay reported that no complications developed in the voting lines despite the excessive large turnout.
“Students only had one or twe ballots to fill out this time and, therefore, did not need to spend much time in the voting booths,” Kay explained.
The major complaint during the general election was that the voting lines were continually slowed down by the lack of more voting booths.
“We got a little crowded in the morning, but most of the time the lines moved very rapidly and there was little or no* delay.” Kay remarked. ‘Actually, everything went very smoothly.”
Victory for Helm was being predicted early'in the afternoon as the voting lines began to thin out. Appel’s chances were considered to lie in an exceptionally large turnout, equalling or surpassing the 2,200 vote record set in the general election, so that he could overtake the 200-vote lead Helm gained over him in the general election.
Students were more surprised by turnout figure than at Helm’s victory. As late as 3:30 p.m., unofficial turnout estimates ran no higher than 1,200.

that the Church should be subordinate to the State and that the Church was not really necessary because salvation was primarily an individual matter between man and God.
Based on the work by Wycliff.
Henry VIII of England in the 16th century brought forth the “Great Bible,” written in English rather than Latin, in an attempt to bring religion to his people.
In 1549. the “Book of the Common Prayer” was introduced, giving the people a laitic-al worship, one in which they could participate. In the past there had been no corporate worship; the clergy themselves had conducted the whole service.
The Germans also fiercely resented papal abuses and expected practice and theory to coincide. With the help of the German princes, Luther and his followers soon were able to break the monopoly of the clergy.
Conflict Existed
Yet conflict still existed. The princes of Germany were divided between Lutheranism and Catholicism.
The straw that broke the camel’s back and brought about Protestantism was the Catholic sorted for each Voter, was credited as the chief factor in princes’ pushing through a de- eliminating the long waiting periods of the previous elec-(Continued on Page 2) tion.
