State Acknowledges
Socioligy Accredited
We have exciting news for those
desiring to make application for a
job in the Social Welfare field for
the State Department of Social Welfare will acknowledge CBC's sociology department accredited.
We must follow this procedure:
The individual's transcript must be
sent to any accredited college for
evaluation. If the transcript is accepted, the accredited college then
certifies the person to the Personnel
Department of Social Welfare. This
department in turn will give the
applicant an examination, which is
required for those entering the Social Welfare field. This procedure
will take the place of accreditation.
This recognition by the State is
another step forward in the accomplishment of the accreditation of
our school.

Fall's Curiosity
Finds Surprise
Reverend and Mrs. B. F. Fail had
sime trash to take to the dumps
recently and while they were there
they happened to see a box which
contained a surprise which was useful to the college.
Out of curiosity, Reverend Fail
looked into the box and much to his
surprise he was looking at some
pocket books of music.
This collection of fine music was
enthusiastically received by Mr.
James Walker. They will be used in
his  music appreciation classes.
The works include Brahms, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Rachmannin-
off, Schumann, and Rimsky Krosa-
koff. These books of music are of
great value to the students and to
California Baptist College.

Lack Of Interest
Calls Off Retreat
Beause of a lack of interest on
the part of the students of California
Baptist College, George Ray announced recently that the scheduled
mid-winter retreat had to be called
off.
"No one was enthused about it at
all", commented George, "and no one
seemed interested in having one so
it   was   necessary   to   call   it   off."
Gift From Flemings
Giving for the cause of California
Baptist College, Mr. and Mrs. William Fleming of the Fleming Oil
Company at Fort Worth, Texas,
gave to Dr. Simmons a check for
five thousand dollars which Dr. Simmons in turn presented to J. L.
Harden, business manager.
Among other contacts throughout
Texas and parts of Louisiana and
Oklahoma, Mr. Arlie Mays, a friend
of Mr. Harden, also gave the college
250   dollars.
Also while visiting with the Flemings, Mrs. Fleming took a list of
books from Dr. Simmons that our
library is badly in need of. The
value of the books amounted to
about three thousand dollars. Mrs.
Fleming is known widely as a contributor of books to colleges but
she made no indication whether she
would purchase them or not.
Addresses of these two friends of
California Baptist Church will now
be given and are also posted outside
the chapel in case any student wishes
to write and express his or her
thanks.
The Fleming's address is 1218
Fair Building, Fort Worth, Texas.
Mr. May's is 207 Mays Building,
Amarillo, Texas.

New Showcase Installed
In  Hall of Library
As you enter the front door of
the library you can see the new
showcase that has been installed just
across the hall from Mrs. Brown's
office.
This showcase was presented to
the school library by friends and relatives of Mrs. Maurice H. Martin in
memory of her husband. The showcase is about eight feet long and
four feet in height, and will be used
to exhibit paintings, art, and other
things that are of interest to the
school.
Mrs. Martin will exhibit some of
her own works in the show case,
such things as pottery and jewelry.
