George Fox College Newberg, Oregon
The Great by Ron Mock Peggy Miller thought she was going to live in a dorm this year. But when she arrived at George Fox this fall to start her junior year, she was informed that no, she wasn't going to live in Edward's Hall this year, she was living in a house on Sheridan Street with five other girls. That's not why she is disappointed. What bothers her is she likes it there, free of dorm life hassles. And the Administration says that as soon as a dorm (girls') on campus is vacant, she'll be going back at the beginning of the next term. Now. let's consider Shirley Bradley's case. She wanted to live with a sophomore (girl) for some reason. She was signed up for Pennington II. However, before she started school, she was told that she had been moved to the Sheridan house. When she brought her things to move them in, she was told to go to the Sherman Apartments instead. So she took her things there. Then she was told to move to Edwards II North. She packed all her stuff over there. The next day (Tuesday, October 2) she was told to move again, this time to Weesner Village. There, the room she was supposed to have still had not been evacuated by the previous occupant. Her things were left outside that night. Finally, on Wednesday, she got moved in to where she is now staying. I don't know if she has a sophomore for a roommate yet. But Shirley likes dorm life, and said that she would like to go back to living in a dorm. However, the girls on Sheridan Street (who don't like dorms) will have first priority for any empty dorms next term. Why is this going on? Why are people being shuffled here and there until all the pieces fit? Why does the college have the power to dictate where students are to live, even after the freshman year? Dean Ankeny said it was as a result of the Board of Trustees insisting on a policy of a resident campus. This policy is to give students the experience of getting along together in a supposed real life situation. This is another way to enrich our college experience. But does that justify dictating housing to juniors, nay, even sophomores? Is the freshman year a good enough minimum for the campus life experience? (What) Do you think? Dean Ankeny also said that the college expected to lose anywhere from 25 to 30
Housing Shuffle
students by next term. It is an economic necessity that those living in rented housing be moved back on campus, to any vacant dorms. No one, however, will be moved in mid-term, even though there were already four drops by October 18. How is the Shuffle conducted? According to Buck Buckley, there is a basic priority. If anyone has to leave a dorm, seniors will go first, followed by juniors and in some cases even sophomores. Freshmen will never be made to leave campus housing. At each separate class level, the choices of who js to go is jriade roughly .o/i the basis of compatibility." How long will this Shuffle policy go on? As long as the Board of Trustees holds to a policy of telling upperclassmen where they have to live. And although the problem is mostly limited to the women's residences right now, if the college grows any more. f~\ liiTlQTSy
the men will become part of the Shuffle. Although the college owns enough apartment space for sixty more students, these can't provide much relief for any short-notice housing shortages because they are tied up with commercial renters. They certainly didn't solve the problem this year. When the college outgrows these, the Administration plans to rent more houses like the one on Sheridan. Since final housing arrangements can't be made until people start arriving, the Shuffle will continue. The only solution to the Shuffle (if we consider it worth stopping) seems to be to ease the strict regulations against independent housing for juniors or those under twenty-three years old. There would be enough students going on their own (also a valuable learning experience) to ease the pressures on the Shuffle (and on the lunch line in the Commons).

WATT YOU CAN DO by Kathy Gregory and Nina Ram It always rains in Oregon, right? And since electricity is generated by water power, there is no end to the supply of electricity, right? Wrong. Most of us have heard that there is a shortage of power expected by the end of winter or early spring, and there are threats of brown-outs and possible black-outs. We've also been told to try to cut down on power consumption. How does not using your electric razor or electric curlers every day make electricity for next March? Most of the electricity used in the Northwest is produced by falling water, fed by huge pipes, through spinning turbines coupled to generators. There is a fixed rate of water flow per second required to produce watts (a unit of electric power). The amount of electricity produced at any one generator or any one dam can thus be controlled by regulating the amount of water passing through the turbines. The Bonneville Power Administration constantly monitors the demands on every power station, attempting to minimize wasted electricity. What this all means is that by not using so much
GENTLY DOWN THE STREAM George Fox College is known (among other things) for its illustrious traditions — freshman orientation, B J fights. May Day dancing. And, for the last four years, dozens of determined daredevils have pooled their resources, time, energy, and ingenuity to pursue the intriguing tradition of raft racing. The art of raft building is a nearly forgotten one in most of our American society. However, here at Fox it lives on. Perhaps the most challenging aspect of building such a craft is that of materials. Materials that float, that is. Scavenging out enough wood, inner tubes, styrofoam, or tanks to support 2, 3, 4, 32, or more people in a float down the river is no small job. After the materials are gathered, another challenging aspect of the art comes into being. This is scavening out enough time from the student's busy schedule to pound (screw, or glue) the raft together. And, definitely not the least of problems, is building, begging, buying, or borrowing paddies, with which to row, row, row your boat . . . Finally, when the raft is finished and the day of the race has come, it is time to test your skill and speed against the other entrants. Hopefully your raft won't fall apart before any of the others do. Saturday morning dawns. The day is cold and gray and you begin to wonder. Then you arrive at the river bank and see the
November 1, 1973
Willamette flowing there — a greasy, soapy brown — and you really begin to wonder. However, this only happens once a year (and you've devoted so much time to it already), so you launch your raft and hop on with the rest of your crew. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily. . . . Off you all move down the river. You paddle on, at first attempting to stay ahead of the raft next to you — for about fifty yards or so. Then you reconsider, realize that that wasn't a realistic goal, and decide merely to attempt to navigate the course without drowning. That is enough of a challenge. On you go. On and on you go. On and on and on and . . . . "Is it much farther to China?" you ask your crew members. They were wondering the same thing. Finally you hear the roaring of the crowd in the distance. The sound sends new strength into your tired muscles, seeming to revive your dying raft. With new power you stroke, sending your creation skimming down-river towards that glorious sound. You round the last bend, see the cheering crowd, and with finesse and grace glide your raft onto the-bank, step off, and collapse into someone's waiting arms. ' 'Was it fun?'' some naive nonparticipant asks. You pause, to give a haughty look, as you reply, "You bet it was." Life is but a dream. . . .
electricity in October, we aren't requiring as much water to pass through the dams, and the resource to make more electricity in February is saved behind the dam. Now comes the pitch. What can / do to help? First of all, be conscious of the problem. We are so used to flicking switches and pushing buttons without that that it is easy to forget there is a tomorrow. Here is a list of things you can do to save electricity:
1. Be sure your room lights are off if you are leaving for any long period of time (if someone is coming back in two hours or less, it actually takes less power to leave the lights on than to flick them on and off all the time). 2. Make more use of your fluorescent study light and less of the regular light bulb. Fluorescent lighting requires much less power and gives off three to seven times as much illumination. 3. Close your drapes to keep the heat in your room, and close down the vents. 4 . Try using cold water to do your laundry (just be sure to use a cold-water detergent and enough of it). Also, setting the machine on "Normal/Fast" cycle will get more water wrung out of your clothes, thus requiring less time in the dryer. 5. Keep shower time to the minimum; reduce water pressure; turn the temperature down. 6. Report leaking faucets promptly. 7. Close opened outside doors and windows. 8. Use electrical appliances sparingly and be sure they are turned off when not in use.

Even though these seem such minor things, a concerted effort by all the students on campus to reduce power use can have a significant effect, not only on total power consumed, but on the electric bill the college has to pay. As you have probably noticed, the fountain is not running this year. This is one of the steps the administration has taken to cut down waste. Thermostats have been turned down, and inside lighting has been reduced. The lack of night campus lighting is not part of this program, as this is due to burned out light bulbs which haven t been replaced yet. The idea of reduced outdoor lighting seems to be a good idea, at first, but these lights are needed for security purposes Any suggestions students have concerning ways the college can further reduce power consumption are welcome at the Business Office.
BEYOND CHRISTIAN EMPHASIS WEEK by Wesley Voth Where do we go from Christian Emphasis Week? The Holy Spirit has been working but the spirit of Satan, a spirit of antichrist has been hard at work also. For those of you who are disappointed with this year so far and with the past week, I empathize with you; I am among you. For those of you who are being excited, I praise God with thanksgiving. With humbleness -because of myself, and boldness because of God, I share these things which God has been showing me. Joel 2:28 prophesies that young men will see visions, and there are those on this campus to whom God is giving the vision of what this college is to be when it turns itself toward God and begins walking in the Spirit. In other words, getting specific about what God wants. 1. It is not good enough to be a body at George Fox College. We as a body must rise to our feet. If we rise to our feet, we will immediately see some of our worst problems. (One is that, as individual Christians coming from many different places, we are all infected with different diseases. Instead of these diseases being remedied through Christian fellowship, an epidemic is going on.) A body is useless lying on the ground. We must get together and stand up. 2. It is not enough to be filled with the Spirit. We must also walk in the Spirit. The Spirit, after giving us power to stand, will give us power and A SPECIFIC DIRECTION in which to walk. We can't sit back and let the Spirit do the work, but instead must give ourselves to do it as He directs and empowers us. 3. It is not good enough to be general. We must get specific about the things God wants to accomplish, the directions in which the Spirit desires us to walk. I would like to briefly mention two. They are 1) Real love for every single person at George Fox expressed by every single Christian here, and 2) a true sense and spirit of worship in every chapel. If you think that either of these is a reality now, ask God to be able to see it through His eyes. Let God begin to show you as an individual what specific changes need to take place in you for God to make them reality in the body, I know that it will become obvious that God is striving to accomplish these things at George Fox. What we need is a real beginning, not a momentary revival. The roots are at work now, but the atmosphere and general awareness are not yet present. Pray and act toward moving the entire body, as every person is vitally important. We cannot be passive or lukewarm because this is what God detests most.
Scholarship Established Two George Fox women are receiving an extra financial boost for their college education this year, thanks to former participants in the college's women's physical education program. Taking off from the long-standing practice of awarding athletic and physical education scholarships for men. Dr. Marge Weesner, director of physical education, this summer wrote to a group of GFC women asking if a scholarship fund couldn't be set up for women. It could, and the first recipients are Kathy Schatz, a junior from Newberg, active in gymnastics, volleyball and tennis; and Judy Fox, sophomore, who participates in basketball, Softball, hockey, and track.
Of Laundry, Equipment and Coaches Renovation of the gymnasium annex is now underway. The project will provide a new office for basketball coach and athletic director, Lorin Miller, create a conference-meeting room, a new office for coach Bob Brown, and provide a new storage area and laundry for the physical education-athletic departments. The remodeling involves both floors of the gymnasium annex. The lower floor will become the central storage area for all physical education equipment and will contain laundry facilities. Two new entrances are being provided for the second floor, one through the seating section in the main part of the gymnasium, and the other as an outside stairway on the campus side. A formerly unfinished area will become the new office for Miller who will move from his present office in Minthorn Hall.

POLITICAL POTSHOTS # 1
Apathy
in the Ballot Box?
by Baron Von Veida It seems like the American people are always voting. And if they're not voting, they're being prevailed upon to do so by politicians, social reformers, legislatures, schools, and the Boy Scouts. "VOTE FOR ME!" they cry in ail-American voices, "and I will give you . . Their opponents' voices, flowing in red, white, and blue, end their speeches across town with the same words, "VOTE FOR ME!'.' Once, all patriotically turned out to stand in lines for hours to exercise their right and privilege to express their opinions by signing their John Henrys, marking their Xs in front of what — or whomever they were for. No more. No more is anyone interested in voting in the new city dog-catcher. Is he Republican? Is he Democrat? Is he kind to cats? Does he like dogs? No one knows. They only know they don't like him because This is a very bad state of affairs. "The American Public is apathetic," we
are told. "The common people just don't care anymore./" we're informed. "The plebes don't seem to be voting. Sir," said the Undersecretary to the President. "Oh good," he replied, "in that case I'll run for another term." And yet, it isn't lack of interest that keeps people away from the polls; it's the lack of anyone they can vote for and mean it. With today's cynicism and disillusionment, with the apparent corruption of government officials, and with problems everywhere you turn; people no longer know what they're for, they only know what they're against. Therefore, I propose a change in our democratic system. Instead of voting for who or what we're for, we should all be able to vote for who or what we're against. Then, whoever has the least votes wins. Face it. Society has changed and so should the means of expressing our opinions.
FAILURE sections before the entire band can be perfect. Often, we cannot be perfect in ourselves. Even with our 100% efforts, we may still lack. Then we must turn to others or to additional knowledge before we may achieve perfection. No one would attempt to write a term paper entirely from his own knowledge; research is undeniably necessary. To us in a college environment, daily perfection is intimately related to how we spend our time. Do we study when we need to study? Do we save our frivolities for their proper time? Are assignments in on time, tests thoroughly studied for when test-time comes? "Hold on," some of you are saying, "I came to college to learn, of course, but intellectualism was not my only goal." To you I reply. "True, true." And that brings up the topic of priorities. There are times when a step towards the achievement of one goal is necessarily detrimental to another goal. There are occasions when the literature assignment goes unread because the biology test demands studying. Or political science gives over to an extra hour sleep. Or economics is missed because fun, relaxation, and frivolity are more important — to keep one from losing his mind entirely. And yet, these exceptions cannot happen on a regular basis. And they must be legitimate. If I do not achieve perfection, I am lessened by my failure — in my sight, in the sight of others, and in the sight of God. A performing musician could probably go without practicing for one day before he himself would notice the difference in his playing ability. But if he went for a week, or longer, his audience would begin to notice. When, at the end of a day. a student can relax and go to bed. knowing that all which was required of him has been done, and done well, he is contented. If he has not, his contentment cannot be complete. If he continues to fall short of perfection, his grades will reflect his lack of effort, and he will lose the respect of his fellow students and his professors. God has required us to be perfect, not only in our moral and spiritual lives, but in our physical responsibilities also. True peace with God is increased as we are faithful in our perfection daily.
Who's Boethus? This year's first music department recital will be given by Dr. Jerry Freisen, tonight, November 1, in Calder Lecture at 8:00 p.m. Last year the department established this lecture series to broaden the students' knowledge of music and its history. Jerry Freisen, faculty member and director of the a capella choir, came to George Fox in 1966. He recently completed his doctorate from the University of Oregon. The first annual Boethus Lecture in 1972, was presented by Seymore Amick, a retired concert pianist now living in Newberg. Amick spoke on form in music, and keyboard literature, with demonstrations on the piano. This lecture is for music students, but it would be appreciated if others would come for additional knowledge of musical field.

SILHOUETTES .
Music Theater: Back 99 Into the re'Sing of Things Rehearsals for the George Fox College Music Theater production of Requiem for A Nobody are now underway. This is a contemporary musical by Tedd Smith showing how churches — and people in general — put up barriers against others. It deals with youth who are lonely and some of their symptoms of loneliness, such as drugs. The Requiem will be a full production, with choreography and special lighting, including the use of a slide show. Soloists include: Steve Cadd, Barbara Sanders, Ken Pruitt, Carla Main, Burt Rosevear, Denise Mills, Kay Ridinger, Steve McKinney, Randy Thornburg, Tony White, Debbie Goins, and Debbie Freeman. Music Theater is a select group of students who present three productions during the school year. This year the fall production is the Requiem. Winter term they will present the opera Pagliacci; Spring term they will produce Fiddler On The Roof. The production dates of Requiem for A Nobody are November 15, 16, and 17.
SNAPPY SNACKS "It's a four-hour class, you see," he said cheerfully, "and we only meet three times each week." And so he assigned us all to do an outside project. Now you may think that having to do a project is much better than being assigned a couple thousand pages of collateral reading. After all, a mere research paper. . . . But it isn't a research paper! When he said he wanted to make up that fourth hour each week, he really meant it! And, to fulfill his requirement, nine George Fox students are devoting an hour each week to the Yamhill County 4-H program. The class is Nutrition, taught by Dr. Dale Orkney. The subject being taught in the 4-H groups is "Snappy Snacks" — nutrition through snacks. Every lesson contains a talk on nutrition, plus a recipe — fudge, pizza, cinnamon toast. Most of the 4-H groups are meeting in various schools in the county. Two Fox students are teaching in Hopewell, five in Willamina, and two in Yamhill, Cove Orchard, and Carlton (these groups each only meet once each month). The students in Nutrition come from many majors. Some are in biology pre-med; some are studying home economics. A few are elementary education majors. There are also pre-nursing students, and Christian ed/religion majors. For this diverse group to work together in an area such as 4-H, almost unrelated to their major studies, the discovery that disciplines can and do work together has to be made. Other students in the class are working in the nutrition department of Friendsview Manor. A few independent projects are underway, also.

And last Thursday, excitement ran high as the George Fox Soccer Club took on Portland Community College and beat them 2 - 1 . Coming off a win over Reed College just a week before, the GF offensive line played especially strong, forcing PCC to play most of the game on their own defensive side. The first score of the game came on a kick by Robby Armstrong, who received the ball off a pass from Jim Jackson. PCC evened the score late in the first half making it one apiece. At the beginning of the second half. George Fox opened with a different defensive strategy. This defense, led by Bob Emmingerand John Koroma, held Portland scoreless. The same technique had shut out Reed in the previous game. The goal which won the game for Fox was booted in by John Sinibaldi, a first-year man from Palo Alto, California, ending the game with a final score of 2-1.

Nevertheless, the group is hard-working and enthusiastic, qualities which make up for their lack of experience. The team has already played three out of twelve matches scheduled this year, with a fourth to take place this afternoon on the home field. Under the training of Coach Nadine Brood, the following women represent us with sticks and ball: Arlene Zimmerman, a junior who played on the team two years ago; Judy Fox, a sophomore who has two games experience from last year's team (the season ended early last year due to an abnormal number of player injuries); Becky Bonney, a junior who plays right wing; Pam Sturginger, freshman, playing right inner; Nancy Kile, a freshman with some high school experience who plays center forward; Nancy Jessup, a sophomore, who plays left inner; Diana Comfort, freshman, playing left halfback; Lauri Manley, junior, playing right halfback; Cindi Roberts, a sophomore, playing right fullback; Jo Brilly, a sophomore, who plays right fullback; and Debbie Cornelia, a freshman, who acts as the team's goalie. Coach Brood says, "When w e say these women come to this game with no experience, take it literally. Several of these gals actually had never even seen the game played." Of the three games played this season already, GFC has come out on the losing end. The scores have been; MarylhurstO-8; Lane Community, 0-5; Willamette, 0-4.
However. Coach Brood points out, "When you come out to see one of our games, or when you hear of our lop-sided lossesremember, our new players began learning the basic skills only three weeks ago. These skills are not easy to master in even a full season of play Also, we start from two to four weeks later than our competitors." The Coach is very pleased with the team's progress. "Of course, I'm anxious to see quicker progress," she says, " n o coach likes losing. But neither do these girls. They are anxious too, and they will win before this season is over." Tonight's home game, with Linfield, begins at 4:00. Last year they beat GFC 0 - 1 , after slipping through the Fox defense in the second half. Later in the season, they passed the Bruins in tournament 3-5. This year the team and coach don't plan to allow that to happen again. " B y winning over Linfield and Pacific," Miss Brood says, "we can even Our standing 2-2. Maryihurst and Willamette are probably the best two teams in the conference," implying that the team started against the toughest competition. Coach Brood especially commends the work of Debbie Cornelia as goalie. She has had a lot of tough work to handle. "She should make a very good goalie as she gains experience." Nancy Kile and Judy Fox were cited as outstanding players in the Lane Community game; Nancy Kile was cited as outstanding in the Marylhurst game. The team has twelve games scheduled including the State Selection Tournament in Salem and the N.W. Tournament at Delta Park in Portland.
