THE AMERICAN -SCANDINAVIAN REVIEW 
E. H. Frisell 
The Scandinavian Club of the University 
of California held its annual banquet October 
15 in Berkeley in a hall made festive with 
streamers of the university blue and gold 
mingling with the flags of Denmark, Norway, 
and Sweden. There was a goodly attendance 
of faculty members, and each professor pres¬ 
ent had to make a short speech taking as his 
theme a few lines from one of the sagas and 
interpreting it in terms of modern life. The 
first speaker, however, was not a professor, 
but the president of the California Steel Cor¬ 
poration, Mr. E. H. Frisell, who is also presi¬ 
dent of the California Chapter of the Ameri- 
can-Scandinavian Foundation and honorary 
president of the Scandinavian Club at the 
University of California. Mr. Frisell gave 
the toast for the president emeritus of the 
University, Dr. Benjamin Ide Wheeler. The 
programme of the evening, which included 
the anthems of all the Scandinavian countries 
not forgetting Iceland, was arranged by the 
president of the club, Mr. S. A. Bjarnason, 
who is doing graduate work in horticulture 
and plant nutrition. Mr. Bjarnason is a 
Canadian of Icelandic parentage. By affairs 
such as this banquet the club works up enthu¬ 
siasm for its ultimate great goal, the estab¬ 
lishment of a professorship in Scandinavian.
