The Arkansas River bed was the setting for a ministry by Patria and Huggables wings. Stu- dents dressed as clowns to amuse children from North Tulsa. Sophomore Kathy Brickman kept her friends warm on the windy Saturday. Unparalleled crowds flooded the Friday night communion with the excess bodies flowing down the stairs and on the floor. lay Muller, a spiritual life director for Wesley Leuhring Dor- mitory, spoke frequently at various services and gatherings across campus. Bridging . piritual Life The communication problem in the bulging Worship Center was bridged in a unique way. Video monitors were hooked up in Kennedy Chapel and the Holy Spirit room to handle the overflow. Summer ministries, both missions and music, experi- enced budget problems that resulted in several students unexpectedly seeking summer employment. The Christian Service Council provided the opportu- nity to communicate with Tulsa's needy. Going into every man's world became a reality as students worked with everyone from abused children to the lonely aged. Following chapel, held every Wednesday and Friday in Christ's Chapel, the great race took place as students, faculty and staff swarmed toward their afternoon destinations, whether it was to class, to work or to lunch. 1 l A Y Egfr I u rv-1 76 uw A Cf I 'fs leannelle Henderson, a sophomore from New Iberia, La., and a member of the group Prism, rocked her way to contributions of approxi- mately S5250 during the annual Rock-a-thon held l to raise money for the summer music ministries.

Though students continued to cheer, men's teams, on the whole, placed well but below expectations. Although the field of sports was wracked with controversy by the NCAA investigation, Coach Lake Kelly's resignation and intramural injuries, each team was undergrided by student support. Support was also evidenced by the massive participa- tion in intramurals, both by competitors and by specta- tors. Everyone wanted to get in on the act. lunior Debbie Kruse from Albuquerque, N. Mex., placed first in floor exercise in the lanuary Oklahoma State Central Tournament. Kruse has been a member of the gymnastics team for three years, since coming to the University.
