CONGRATULATIONS! Bill Stratton and Lonnie Hailey watchas Ernie
Britton presents Dave Iverson with a plaque for all his service to
the school.
Iverson Honored
Among the January graduates
last semester was Dave Iverson,
vice-president of both the Business Club and the Rotoract Club.
In appreciation for all Iverson
did for the Business Club he
was presented with a plaque at
a dinner held in his honor.Those
present at the dinner, Jan. 18
in the Presidents Conference
Room, were the members of the
Business Club, the RotoractClub
and personal friends.
While attending CBC, Iverson
was general manager of the concession stand, the first treasurer of the Business Club, and vice-
president of the Business and
Rotoract Club.
He was the silent backbone of
many projects which perhaps
would not have been accomplished without his assistance. At the
time of his graduation and move
to Rock Island Arsenal, Arkansas, he was working to get more
lights  in the dorm parking lot.
J.L. Harden, who served as
business manager for 13 years,
assumes the new assignment as
Vice President for Development,
effective February 1, 1974.
In his new position, Harden will
devote much attention to the CBC
GUILD (Group United in Life
Development), the annual Report - Support Dinner, enlisting
local church budget support, and
encouraging foundational support.
"Harden was the natural
choice," said college president,
Dr. James R. Staples. "Not only
is he a very capable man, but
he knows California like the palm
of your hand," Dr. Staples continued.
He originally came to CBC
from a similiar position at Way-
land Baptist College in Texas.
As Cal Baptist's business manager, he not only grappled with
the campus financial status, but
he often served as interim pastor. "At that time", Harden said,
"no one knew anything about the
college," 'Today as 1 travel
-the state," he continued, "it
seems as if everyone has heard
of it and every where I go I
meet alumni."

J.L. Hardin
As an active community participant, Harden has been a member of the Riverside Chamber of
Commerce, Riverside Beautifi-
cation Committee, Mayor's Committee, and Education and Professional Committee. As a result
of his involvement and interest,
Harden was selected as the Mayor
and Citv Council's Citizen of the
Year in 1970.
In addition to his civic and educational leadership, Harden has
been active with the Southern
Baptist Convention having served
as vice president of the state
program and twice on the committee on Boards on the national
level.
His wife, Esther Mae, has
been a great help to J. L. as they
traveled over the state organizing the CBC GUILD chapters.
She taught English at CBC for
thirteen years after teaching at
Way land College for ten years
in the same capacity. Together, they know many Southern
Baptists in California and this
strengthens Harden's work in
the Department of Development.
After a two year absence, Harden returned to CBC in 1972
as associate to Ed Packwood.
Packwood now limiting his service so he may devote more time
to personal business and investments, will be an advisory
consultant, in a non-salary capacity.
"With Mr. Packwood's expertise in the field of finance and
development, they will continue
to form a great team," stated
Dr. Staples.
