Preview day slated forJ Friday
Friday, October 14, CBC will
host the first in a series of five
Preview Days for prospective students. Preview Day is normally
held once a year but the change to
five days has been made to allow
people to schedule a convienent
time to visit our campus. This
event allows students, families,
and or sponsors to view an average
day at CBC. Basically this is an
opportunity for the students to get
a good look at the facilities and
campus.
"This first Preview Day we are
expecting 75 to 100 students,"
stated Pam Vickery, director of
this event. This decrease in the
number of students will make it
possible for a more personal visitation. Peer advisors and other
student volunteers will direct tours
of the campus with hopefully a
minimum of five students per
group.
In the past the choice has been
to have a representative from each
department speak during a seminar upon their department giving
the students a chance to evaluate
the department's services. This
year all of the students will be
given the opportunity to speak with
the department representative of
their choice and a department student to allow them to concentrate
on the certain section of their education.
Registration will begin at 8 in
the Book of Life, followed by tours
of the campus. Class visitation
will continue from 9 to 11 with
a special chapel presentation at 10.
Speaking in chapel will be Tom
Wolf. During the same service
Rhaposdy, Middle Earth, and
Brass Ensemble will be performing. This will be the first time
Middle Earth and Brass Ensemble
Regeneration
THE RE'GENERATION is coming to Riverside on Saturday, October 14. This nationally acclaimed
musical assemblage composed of
13 members will be making this
exclusive appearance at Magnolia
Baptist Church at 7:00.
Conceived and developed by renowned composer and arranger,
Derric Johnson, THE RE'GENERATION program is always a
unique experience of sight and
sound. This company of multi-
talented musicians comes from all
across the nation; from New York
to Oregon, Florida to Minnesota!
Credits? They've got plenty!
Covering over a half a million
miles, they've been seen by nearly four (4) million people in live
performances including over 160
shows at Walt Disney World; fairs
from California to North Carolina;
the George Washington Honor Medal Award from the Freedoms
Foundation; the New Spirit of '76
Award; featured performances for
the legislators of California, Tennessee, West Virginia, Indiana,
and Florida; performances at over
100 national and international conventions; and over 1500 church and
college concerts. In seven years
THE RE'GENERATION has
amassed an amazing 3500 live
performances, with 24 albums,
numerous television appearances,
and their "America Is. . ." radio
show (aired by some 500 stations)
to their credit, THE RE'GENERATION is seen and heard daily by
millions of people world-wide.
RE'GENERATION will be in Riverside Saturday.
Off-campus club
A11 off-campus students are
urged to attend meetings of the
newly formed Off-Campus Club,
Mondays in Harden Square at 10.
"Our primary goal is to meet one
another. We want the off-campus
students to know who each other
are, "says Carolyn Bolz, spokeswoman for the group.
According to Bolz, the club
plans to become an effective tool
for voicing off-campus students'
problems. 'Too often our opinions
on matters go virtually unnoticed,"
members insist.
Charter members of the Off-
Campus Club so far include students living in La Sierra, Arlington, Rubidoux, Riverside, La Puen-
te, Colton, Corona, and Rialto.
Members agree that the club's
growth potential is staggering.
"We could easily become the largest group on campus," they say.
have played on our campus this
year.
A free barbecue lunch will be
served in Harden Square. There
will be musical entertainment provided. After lunch students and
visitors are invited to attend and
cheer the CBC soccer team on to
victory as they play on their home
field at 3 against Barstow City
College. The day will be concluded
with a concert, by Regeneration
and a movie entitled "Funny Girl."
The dates chosen for the other
five Preview Days are: Nov. 11,
Dec. 2, Feb. 17, and April 14.
The February Homecoming will
bring the alumni back to campus
and Pam Vickery is asking that
the alumni bring with them a
prospective student.
For those of you who were worried about not having that good old
rock'em sock'em powderpuff football game for Prospective Student Day, just relax and sit back
in your arm chairs for there is a
possibility that there will be not
one, but four powderpuff games to
be  held  beginning  with Nov.  11,
(depending upon the weather, broken bodies, and sense of competitiveness).
All in all the Preview Day calendar appears to be improved for
the benefit of the prospective students. This improvement is justified by the idea of making the situation more 'personal' for the future students.

Norvo Belton wins preliminary
OUR PRELIM WINNER!
Saturday, October 8 in our Book
of Life Theatre, 5 acts participated in the Preliminary BobHope
Search for the Top in Collegiate
Talent Show. The competitors
were excellent, but one act was to
be selected on the basis of technical excellence, showmanshipand
professionalism, treatment and interpretation of material but not
on the basis of the other acts.
After a grueling 20 minutes, the
judges returned with the results.
Our winner was Miss Norvo Belton singing Gospel songs and her
accompanist was Randy Craig on
piano. Norvo was a poised lady
singing for our Lord that night.
Your prayers of support are necessary when Norvo comes up
against the many other college
and university acts in just four
more weeks.
Saturday, November 5 California
Baptist College will be hosting the
Lower California Area Competition between all the student preliminary winners. A fine judging
panel will be asked to select 9
winners  who will go to the Sec-
Norvo Belton
tional Competition, where only 2
of those 9 will be selected to
travel to Kansas City for the National Competition when Mr. Bob
Hope will be present. Miss Judy
Carolan is selecting the judging
panel. Two of the 5 judges are Mr.
Michael Kellar of Mohkou Produc
tions and Mr. Warren R. Swem,
II of West Coast Artists Management.
Miss Carolan, Area Hostess
says, "The Area Competition will
be very entertaining for our campus audience. This is our chance
to view the talent from our neighboring schools; like Cal Poly Pomona, Cal Art Institute in New-
hall, Pepperdine, University of
California at San Diego, Cal State
Fresno, and USC. Our college has
never participated in such an event
and I am asking for everyones
prayerful support and attendance.
1 know Miss Belton will covet your
prayers. Thank you."
The USO, Disneyland a ndDis-
neyworld have shown interest in
our Area Show November 5 and
will have representatives present.
The cost of the ticket is $2.00
and may be purchased through the
office of the Resource Center beginning Monday, October 17. All
proceeds go to offset the hosting
costs and monies left over will
be used to send the finalists to
the Sectional Competition.
