Fall Banquet goes to the Top ' City lights created a romantic view from high atop Portland ' s Cosmopolitan Hotel for those attending the Fall Banquet this year. After a punchbowl reception, master of Ceremonies Dick Benham welcomed the gathering to an evening of entertainment, beginning with the music of G.F. student Laura Clark. Guests then enjoyed the antics of the college ' s drama tour group while finishing tossed salad, roast beef, and vanilla ice cream. Special performer Tom Howard gave a concert of thought-provoking songs he had written, deftly accompanying himself on piano and guitar. He also did a comical song about life in a goldfish bowl which received a hearty round of applause. The group, happy and well-fed, was dismissed with a benediction by the Activities Director, Fred Van Gorkom, to return to a few more weeks of ordinary life. 22 Fall Banquet

It was a fulfilling week for a lot of students, with several accepting Christ for the first time and many more renewing their commitments. Several also attended the evening sessions where discussions accompanied Ross ' s messages. Becoming the kind of people God wants us to be was stressed as the most significant task of Christians, along with the true meaning of believing in Christ. Dr. Ross is the president of Evangelistic Enterprises in Seattle. He is involved in several outreach programs and serves as a development consultant to Christians organizations.
