Boys' Ranch Group Are
CBC Revival Converts
By Angela Morgan
One of CSM's revival teams
made a trip to Palmdale, Calif.,
last weekend, May 2-4. They promoted and created spiritual interest in the members of the First
Southern Baptist Church of Palm-
dale. "It was very successful,"
remarked Janet Bower, a junior
from Santa Clara, and pianist of
the four-member team; "our team
really enjoyed it because we felt
we got something accomplished
this weekend in that many decisions
were made."
Starting the evening off right was
the delicious steak Rev. John Hill
provided for the team before the
Friday service. However, the excitement of a good meal soon wore
off when the team surveyed their
audience. "We were all really nervous when we viewed the 30 boys
from the boys' ranch. The first
night they wouldn't respond or react; I guess they felt they had to
'keep up their image.' "
Dan Rowan, the music leader of
the group, was referring to the
numerous boys whom, due to disciplinary problems, broken homes,
or lost parents, were placed at the
ranch, and brought to church on a
volunteer basis. The revival was
the first time the boys had been
to church; ordinarilly, the church
would visit the ranch and perform
a program there. "It was the last
resort, so to speak, for it was such
a difficult ministry that many times
the workers felt like throwingtheir
hands up, and giving up.
The boys ranged from seventh
grade to senior high, and the average attendance was 30 boys per
night. Though the boys proved uninterested the first night, Debbie
Morgan, the fellowship 1 eader,
soon had them laughing. Through
games, skits, relay competitions
and refreshments, the boys grew
relaxed and more respondent to the
Newman Elected President,
Emphasis On Activities
The newly elected A.S.B. officers for the coming year are Timothy Newman, president; Allen Wagner, vice president; and Jack Hart,
social chairperson.
A run-off election between Linda
Koontz and Debbie Murphey for the
office of secretary, was held
Wednesday and Thursday in the
hallway and the cafeteria. The
winner will need only a simple
majority to win. Results were unknown at press time:
Both Newman and Wagner have
ideas for the coming year. According to Newman, "My main
ideal for next year is to apply the
experience I acquired as vice president toward more effective activities. The greatest complaint upon
this campus has been that nothing
ever happens. After seeing this, it
is evident that whatever the ASB
will do, it will have to be done
well.
"1 see no limit," says Newman,
"to what we can do next year. The
A.S.B. stands a good chance of
making $1,500 plus- on the Imperials' concert. With this extra
money there is no limit to what
we can do in regards to the Yule
next year."
Allen Wagner says he'd like to
see   more   student  involvement.
'That's my major concern. . .
more student involvement in the
affairs of our school, including
club and class cooperation with
the A.S.B. I would like very much
to get a new student center with
more games and pinball machines.
More activities is the key to student involvement."
Lewis-Ogston Show in Tourney
George Lewis and Rick Ogston
placed third in their respective
categories at the Cal State L.A.
Spring Forensics Tourney. Sylvonia Sager also made it to the
finals.
Lewis, in his first competition
of the year, was entered in the
novice oral interpretation division.
His theme, "Lack of Communication," is based on two selections
from "What is a Good Jewish Boy
Like You Doing in First Baptist
Church."
Ogston  competed  in the junior
persuasion division with his speech
on the CIA. Ogston recently placed
16 in persuasion in the National
Forensics Tourney held in Buffalo,
New York. While in New York,
Ogston competed in four preliminary rounds. In two rounds he received the perfect score of 1-100.
Miss Sager placed fourth in the
novice oral interpretation division
at the CSULA tourney. She missed
third by two points when her presentation exceeded the time limit.
Also competing were JanellHig-
ginbotham, Steve Flynn, and Debbie
Rehkopf.
team members. "Of all the things
they enjoyed the most, the singing
and illustrated devotionals were
their favorite. They even looked
forward  to the next devotional."
Throughout the fun, however,
the team was concerned with the
spiritual aspect of the people. The
preacher of the group, Amos
Omoresemi, a senior from Nigeria, laid the good news of salvation on his audience. "They
loved Amos and invited him and
his wife back to talk about foreign
missions." Rowan added,
'They're planning to teach him
and his wife how to can food so
they can teach the Nigerians when
they return to Africa."
Twenty-five rededications were
made, and eight boys from the
ranch professed Christ as their
personal Savior. "It truly was a
great success and I enjoyed it.
We worried about things not being
organized, but everything worked
out fine."
The team members stuffed their
faces royally, for the warm hospitality of the people was really
marvelous. Saturday night 115
people were present - the church
itself had from 30 to 40 young
people. This revival was unique
because of the different angle shed
on the service, there were the
average church members and then
there were the ranch boys.
Testimonies were given during
every service, and special music
in the form of solos and duets
were.given. The entire weekend
can be summed up in one word:
"success."
