"The Tragical History of Dr. Faustas" by Christopher Marlowe and under the direction of Bob Hughes will run Thursday through Saturday nights, Nov. 5-7. The "Faustas" cast of 25 has been rehearsing since early October to perform this combination morality play and tragedy written about 1590. The timeless plot of Good vs. Evil as they strive for conquest and rule over life as well as death fits in as well in our twentieth century as it did four centuries ago when first written. Action in the play centers around the title character Dr. John Faustas, played by Noel Walker, but nevertheless manages to make several relevant comments about controversial aspects of life on earth - - and afterwards. Already at a high point of intensity when it begins, the play builds to a terrifying and shaking climax. Tension in "Faustas" is broken only by comic relief scenes to let the audience relax and digest the meaning of the scenes. These scenes are furnished by Sam Vickery and Michael Carver who portray the medieval '"clowns" always present in plays of this period. Marlowe's "Faustas" was written not so much to entertain, although it is an absorbing drama, as to say something. Director Bob Hughes brings out the message of the play which, according to him, is more powerful and direct than any fire and brimstone sermon could ever be. Hughes has faced all the ordinary problems a director must deal with, only multiplied because of the unusually large size of the cast. In spite of a large cast, little time for rehearsal, and lack of facilities for drama, he has done a remarkable job with a difficult play. been writing the book since 1968. The play has been in the making since September 1970. It has a multimedia approach. Three projectors, live and taped music will be used along with actors and actresses. Pictures will be continuously shown on three different screens. James Walker, technical director, has been gathering and taking slides that go back as far as the early days of the school to present day. There will be recognition of outstanding personalities both part and present in these slides. The narrator will be Ed Collier a graduate of CBC. This entire program will lead up to and introduce Dr. James Staples to the California State Convention for the first time. Staples will then address the convention at that time. The President of the Southern Baptist Convention, Dr. Carl Bates, will address those in attendance at 11:00 a.m. There will be a change in the normal class schedule on that day. The first two classes will meet for 50 minute periods, the last period ending at 9:50 a.m. All students are urged to attend although it is not a required chapel attendance. Chapel to Host State Speaker, Spurgeon Slides Chapel on Wednesday, Nov. 11 will feature a speaker from the Southern Baptist General Convention to be held in Riverside Nov. 10-12, 1970. Chapel will meet at Magnolia Ave. Baptist Church. Assembly Chapel will preview the Spurgeon Slides, on Friday, Nov. 13. Chapel will meet in the gymnasium. Do you realize that most half of all the students at CBC are either music majors or music oriented? That's a lot of people. How many of you are satisfied with our music organization? How many of you are happy with our music program and facilities? There will be a meeting this Friday, Nov. 6 at 3:30 in the basement, room 22 for all music majors and other students and faculty interested in forming a music guild for increasing the possibilities of more music programs, a combined repertoire, and better facilities.

Please attend and find out what your officers have been doing. 8432 MAGNOLIA AVE Page 1, Nov ., RIVERSIDE, CALIF. . 6, 1970 The Rose of Rose Garden SENIORS HELP JUNIORS THE IMPERIALS appear-In concert and on T.V. - with Jimmy Dean, both as back-up singers and as featured gospel singers on the Jimmy Dean Show. With Dean, they performed at the Hemisphere, for the Inauguration of the Governor of Texas, at Harrah's in Reno, and the Frontier Hotel (Las Vegas) as well as in major auditorium concerts, coast-to-coast. The Imperials Gospel Quartet Here Nov. 23 The IMPERIALS - Voted Gospel Music's number one male quartet by the Gospel Music Association, are one of America's most versatile and exciting vocal groups. Since the group's inception in 1963, they have presented their special brand of gospel music excitement coast-to-coast in major auditorium gospel concerts, college and university programs, fairs, trade shows and to millions on major T.V. shows including The Joey Bishop Show, The Merv Griffin Show and The Mike Douglas Show. They have been featured on every major gospel T.V. program including the "Gospel Singing Jubilee", "Singing Time In Dixie", and "America Sings". Their fourteen record albums on the Heart Warming and Impact labels are consistently strong seelers. Several of the Imperial albums have received "grammy" award nominations in the "Best Gospel Record" category, including their album "New Dimensions", in this year's competition. The group has been very active on the Nashville recording scene backing major artists including Elvis Presley, Jimmy Dean, Connie Smith and Hank Locklin. Tenor, Jim Murray, a native of Lansing, Michigan, studied voice at Michigan State University with Metropolitan Opera Coach, Dr. Gene Greenwell and was a scholarship student with Robert Shaw. He sang with several Michigan gospel groups while in school and traveled extensively with the Stamps Trio before joining the Imperials in 1966. Lead singer, Terry Blackwood, is the son of Doyle Blackwood, an original member of the internationally famed Blackwood Cuartet. He is a 1967 graduate of Memphis State University with a Business Administration major and a music minor. As a Black- he has toured and recorded with the Memphians and the famed Slamps Cuartet. Memphis, Tennessee is the home of the Blackwood clan. By BUNNY BURT "Good fences make good neighbors," says Robert Frost in one of his most familiar poetry works. In some instances, whereprivate interests are involved, this is a good policy. But, in the case of California Baptist College's immediate personal financial need, "good fences" can sometimes break channels of communication and answer to this and other urgent problems. It is clearly visible that there is a brick concrete wall which separates the CBC campus from what is called Rose Garden Village; more commonly known for its retirement community and Wedding Chapel. In my two years at CBC, I have always wondered what is on the other side of that wall, one day, I ventured to hop over the wall, only to find a man who has a vision and a heart and alert mind completely open to the problems and dreams of the young. The man of imagaination, is Dr. Bert Turner, whose dream can be summed up in the motto of the Foundation which is: "Seniors helping juniors." Dr. Turner holds an utmost concern that "young people come to view life from the perspective of God's will-for career, marriage, service." He is convinced that a Christian education in a college is important, but more important, is the Christ centered life. Dr. Turner discovered the importance of Christian colleges during his student years at On tario Baptist College. "In the depression years," he said, "it wasn't so easy to get the kind of educnt*T *> o ^n want sndwant our young rt-ople to have." Dr. Turner has two daughters who have graduated from West- mont College in Santa Barbara, Calif. Now that his daughters are married, Dr. Turner now has founded the Rose Garden Village Foundation, to help other young people, Through this organization to Senior Citizens of the United States and Canada, he shares his vision. He encourages Christian seniors to help juniors-to "extend their Godly influence into the lives of this and future generations." The purpose of the Foundation is to "encourage older Christian people to aid in a practical, financial way, smaller Christian colleges which are reputable and of high educational standards." Dr. Turner is aware of CBC's financial problem and wishes that the Foundation be able to help remedy this need. One of his suggestions consists of a "Student Day," on a Sunday where the people of Rose Garden Village, and other concerned people can give a 'love offering," in behalf of CBC. This is one solution to CBC's most critical problem, and it has taken only a "hop over the neighborly wall" to open closed bonds of communication between seniors and juniors. Baritone, Roger Wiles, from La Mesa, California, also come from a singing family. He started singing in concerts with his parents at age six. He attended Grossmont Junior College and appeared in major musical productions in San Diego including Oklahoma!, Cyrano DeBergerac, and the Summer Sounds of Music. He was the Minister of Music and Youth Director at the La Mesa Gospel Tabernacle and sang with his father's quartet, the Melodyaires. Before joining the Imperials, he toured the U.S.A. as lead singer with the renowned Weatherford Suartet. Bass, Armond Morales, also a Californian (Huntington Park), has been with the group from the start. He attended Crompton Junior College and was much in demand for record session work in Los Angeles with conductor Ralph Carmichael. He was with the Armed Forces Radio Network as an announcer in korea and has appeared as soloist with the Los Angeles Symphony. "The Imperials will be performing here in the gym Monday, Nov. 23 at 8 p.m. the program will last for approximately 2 hr. including intermission. Admission price is only $2.00 for bleacher seats and $2.25 for chairs.
