Trustees of California Baptist College will be called into
special session May 24 to consider the recommendation of a
public school superintendent
from Missouri as new president of CBC.
Russell R. Tuck, Jr., 49,
will be the nominee of the
CBC search committee, according to its chairman Dale
Brister, El Monte pastor.
Trustees will consider him at
the May 24 special session called by chairman James Morton, Livermore pastor.
The search committee voted
unanimously last Saturday to
recommend Tuck of Kirk
Wood, MO, who is associate
superintendent for curriculum
and instruction for the Des
Peres school district. He is a
graduate of Union University
and holds a master and doc-
torate from Peabody
University.
An active layman, Tuck
leads a school district with a
$69 million budget, according
to a friend, Carl Butler, retired
Russell R. Tuck
pastor in Riverside. He has
been an educator all his life,
Butler added.
Following the special
trustees meeting May 24, Tuck
will meet the CBC student
body the next day which is
Awards Day at the college.
That meeting hinges, of
course, on the recommendation meeting with approval by
the trustees.
If approved, Tuck could
possibly move to Riverside by
July 1, Butler said.
Tuck and his wife, Mar-
jorie,    have   two   children.
Russell, III, will graduate
from Duke University this spring summa cum laude and has
received the highest number of
post graduate scholarship offers in the history of Duke. A
daughter graduates this spring
from a high school in
Kirkwood, also with honors
Butler said.
CBC has had an acting
president, Harold K. Graves,
since February when former
president James R. Staples
became chancellor. Staples
plans to retire about the first
of the year.
Dear Editor,
I have a serious message for
you. For a while now there has
been a Mailgram on the ASB
bulletin board from Billy
Graham. In reference to the
spiritual need in England, Dr.
Graham said that
"...organization is not the
answer, but prayer is." He
followed that with a request to
pray for England. From now
through the end of July, Billy
Graham, Louis Palau, and
Leighton Ford will be holding
evangelistic meetings in
various parts of England. This
is part of Mission to England.
I had an opportunity to work
in England last year with an
evangelism team, so I know
some of the difficulties
involved.
Please pray every day for
these men and all the people
involved. Prayer works
wonders. Thanks,
Bob Pomroy

Graduation Exercises
The thirty-first annual
graduation ceremonies at
California Baptist College in
Riverside will be held June 2.
Keynote speaker will be Hal C.
Wingo, assistant managing
editor and news editor for People Weekly magazine.
Included in the 184 candidates for graduation is the
first graduating class of the
master's program in Marriage,
Family and Child Counseling.
Twelve students will receive
their master of science degrees
awarded for the first time in
the college's history. The two-
year program began in 1982
and is the only master's program offered at the college.
Also included in the
graduating class are 14 candidates for graduation in
Cluster II of the Business Executive Degree Program. This
program allows professionals
who never completed college
to earn a degree in 18 months.
This program began in 1982.
Honorary doctorate degrees
will be given to Wingo, J. L.
Harden and Dana Horn.
Wingo will receive the doctor
of humane laws degree.
Harden, longtime business
manager and vice president of
development at CBC now
retired, will receive the doctor
of  laws   degree.   He   is   the
You've seen the little slips of
paper bearing these words all
over campus- so who or
WHAT is Mac? Mac is not the
name of some new freshman
that's enrolling next year nor
the name of the next president
of CBC, but Mac is short for
Macintosh. The Macintosh is a
relatively new computer
designed by Apple Computer,
Inc.
So what's so special about
the Macintosh? Well, for one
thing, you can get 128K or
512K or RAM. For those of
you who don't know com-
puterese, one "K" equals 1024
bytes of memory and one byte
is equal to one character,
space, or symbol in memory.
The Commodore-64's and Apple IPs which we now have
contain only 64K RAM.
Another great thing about
the Macintosh is its graphics.
You can draw and diagram
right on screen. You probably
saw an example of the Macintosh graphics just a couple of
weeks ago and didn't even
know it. I'm referring to some
of the "Lancer 'Lympics"
Flyers that were designed on a
Macintosh. The best thing
though is that the Mac is easy
to use. Apple's goal was to
teach a computer how people
work rather than having people learn how a computer
works. Everything you need is
right on the screen... just
te
move the little Mouse and
"click" it. No stacks of handbooks with commands to
memorize.
Right now there are three
groups that have shown an interest in using Macintosh type
equipment when we get it (We
will). We talked to representatives from ASB, Banner, and
the Student Foundation to see
how the Macintosh could help
them. We received a wide
range of responses but perhaps
Allen Payton summed it up
the best when he listed four
basic areas of need:
1. Budget
2. Publicity (graphics)
3. Word processing (letters,
articles, etc.)
4. Project planning
The Macintosh is not here
yet. We are in the process of.
assembling interested students
to help with fund raisers and
obtaining donations. It will
cost approximately $3,000 but
that price includes disk drive,
printer, keyboard, screen,
mouse, and software. Presently, a "CBC Macintosh
Development Team" has been
assembled. At any rate, we
will have the Mac before fall
semester.
Do you realize that when we
get the Macintosh our school
will be up to date in at least
one area?
Let's go for it!!!
