Goo. Romney Remoued
from Choice '68 Ballot
The name of Governor George
Romney has been removed from the
CHOICE 68 ballot. The project's
Board of Directors decided that Romney's abrupt decision of February
28 that he intended to withdraw from
the presidential race, left them with
little alternative but to comply with
the spirit of the Governor's announcement.
Romney's departure from the race
reduces the number of CHOICE 68
candidates to thirteen. The Governor's political philosophy of moderate liberalism, however, remains
well represented in the candidacies
of  other    individuals   on   the   ballot.

Baptist Big-Wigs Visit Campus
For Denominational Dialogue
Thirteen denominational leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention visited
the Cal Baptist campus Wednesday to carry on "Denominational Dialogues" —
an attempt to find out what the youth of the nation think of the various programs of the Convention. The confrontation between the denominational
leaders and the students began at ten o'clock in the College Chapel hour.
Including discussions in classes where they were invited, the leaders were
kept busy answering questions and listening to suggestions all day.
In some of the afternoon sessions there was some spirited discussion of
the value of the entire program system. There seemed to be considerable
feeling among both students and denominational leaders that there is too
much dependence on the national and state level of organization for guidance
in    the    local   church   situations.   A
Nieport, Rowland Honored
by Circle K Club March 20
George Nieport, Riverside Ki-
wanis Club member, has been honored by Cal Baptist's Circle K Club.
The club's newly created service
Award has been named the "George
Nieport Service and Achievement
Award."
This announcement came as a
surprise to the man who helped organize the Circle K Club on campus,
and who serves the club in an advisory capacity.
First recipient of the award was
Stan Rowland, a senior from Anaheim. This year Stan is Yearbook
editor, and has helped Coach Aycock
publicize athletic events for the college. In chapel March 20, Wayne
Martindale presented the award and
recognized Stan Rowland for his
leadership in the club and his many
contributions to the college community.
The recipient of this award will
receive dinner for two in one of Riverside's restaurants, and also flowers for his date from the Riverside
Flower shop, located in the downtown mall.

European Trip Report
considerable amount of time was
devoted to discussion of freedom for
innovation and creativity.
The general theme of the entire
day was "What do you want our
denomination to be like in the
1970's?" The programs of the different sessions consisted of two two-
minute speeches by the visitors with
the remainder of the time devoted to
questions and comments by the
students.
The last session of the dialogue
on campus was at the five o'clock
dinner hour. However, the dialogues
continued off-campus at Palm Baptist Church and Magnolia Ave.
Baptist Church in the evening.
On the whole, student reaction
seemed to be favorable regarding the
day's venture. One student said that
the day's sessions had helped him
realize that the denominational
leaders weren't all bad anyway.
