. X .3LX,.i The Singing Collegians: In Journeyings Often In Practices Ever Singing Collegians. an eight year tradition of Fort Wayne Bible College is this year, for the first time, presenting Time and Eternity. This is a new approach to giving the gospel to high schools, coffee houses, and youth oriented meetings. Practicing, traveling, and performing, we spend a lot of time together, so the need for honesty with each other is important. Being ourselves when we are with others makes our Christianity more X' 'B A. real than if we attempted to maintain one role on stage and another role with friends. The medium we use is music and individual testimonyg the message is Jesus Christ: Savior and Lord. Members ofthe Collegians are Renee Cook, Bob Couch, Jeanette Granger, Randy Grieser, Kent Hake, Dale Hamrick, Greg Hullinger, Dewey Johnson, Stan Kesler, Jerry Miller, Nancy Miu, Nick Miu, Carla Rupp, Janice Zimmerman, and John Clay, sound. by Nancy Miu ,, . n .I l li 'a

Positive Side Blends For Christ Positive Side '73, a talented musical group of eight students, traveled this summer representing Fort Wayne Bible College. More important, however, was their sen- sitive representation of Jesus Christ. Variety and individuality were certainly evident within the group. Nancy Waits, the Peachi' from Georgia, flavored the group with her spontaneous humor. Larry Lewis, the handsome athlete from Witchita, Kansas, carried the bass and captured the attention of many interested girls. He seldom said much, but his humor was there none the less. On the other hand, was observed the unpredictable character of Garry Cline, whose most common phrases were, I'm sorry! and, What did I say? Garry, a junior from Delta, Ohio, just does not know when to quit talking. Marti Zimmerman, an attractive brunette from Archbold, Ohio, added a sense of calmness and self- control to the group. Al Seawell, from Morristown, ln- diana, always enjoyed making side comments and play- ing the electric bass. Always cheering were the vibrant and radiant smiles ofludy Engle, the lead soprano from Richmond, Indiana. Then there was the computer-like mind of Maurice Clinger, sound technician from Garden City, Michigan, who was responsible for the mikes, levels, balance, taped accompaniments, tone and blends. Rick Engle from Lynn, Indiana, was the hard- driving student director. - At first glance, Positive Side appeared to be a hopeless hodge-podge. Yet many have felt it was one of the most successful tours ever sent out by FWBC. The busy schedule included thirteen weeks of singing in churches, camps, conferences, business meetings, park concerts and traveling from Ohio to Kansas, from Michigan to Kentucky. It was encouraging to see God melt all of the per- sonalities into one solid unit, yet allow each of us to maintain our personal identities. Because it was a group dedicated to God, He could see us.
