W4 Faculty-Student Leadership Conference. ASMSB Congress and Cabinet met with the faculty in the A-Frame from 2:30 to 7:30 and had dinner together there. They dis- cussed such issues as the future of MSB, finances, the discipleship program, student homework load, and the dining room dinner hour. l5 Day of Prayer and Praise. Multnomah students learned a little bit more about Matthew 18:1-6 and the faith of a child this day of prayer and praise. Several second and third grade children from Portland Christian grade schools visited us in CB Auditorium to answer questions relating to life, how they look at God, their concept of prayer. It seemed they had a great deal of insight. They also sang their testimony of Christ. All totalled it was a refreshing change to have some little ones in our midst. After struggling through theology, it was beautiful to see a child express his faith and his concept of God so simply. Carl Thompson l7 Friday Family Chapel. Suffering from an acute identity crisis MSB President Dr. Willard Aldrich presented a chapel slide presentation on Who I Am or The Life of Willard Aldrich. The auditorium shook with laughter. One slide seemed to confirm that he has enough arrows in his quiver K9 kidsl. The presentation was prompted by several misguided students who were still asking him. for his name after he'd spoken every Friday in Chapel. tThe view of the podium from the back pew in CB auditorium isn't too good unless, of course, one accompanies one's presentation with visual aidsll l7-W8 Seniors go to their class advisor's home. Seniors chose Friday and Saturday evenings for comic relief from studies at the home of their advisor Bill Muir. Since the Muir home would only hold 40 at a time, seniors signed up for the evening of their choice. From about 7:30 to 11:00 p.m. seniors enjoyed various table games, visiting, some yummy refreshments made by Mr. Muir's wife Carol, singing, and a short class meeting to plan the year. Friday night attenders heard Linda Ballweg whis- tle her way through a story of the three bears. Was there any truth to the rumor that those attending Friday night went back to TP the Muir's on Saturday night? 4 . .nd ,A
