Impact .
Th e word denotes an outside force or change. Academics, sports, organizations and other individuals all had an impact in the lives of the students wh o mad e up this year at Liberty Baptist College. These students, in turn, affected the community of Lynchburg through planned programs and spontaneous actions. World, national and local events also had an impact on students as they changed or reinforced ideas.

Peopl e interacted in meeting new and lasting friends.Students had an impact on each other through social activities.Entertainment included six concerts along with Saturday night films planned by the Student Government Association. The drama department presented four plays including the "Sound of Music" and "Oedipus, the King." Studying was also a normal part of the student's lives although other activities often took priority. Chapel and church services at Thomas Road Baptist Church were regular aspects of lifeat LBC that also had an impact on many LBC students.
Academic s had an impact on both students and faculty. Itwas thefirst full year for LBC as an accredited institution. Twenty-seven new faculty members were added due to an enrollment increase of411 students over last year. From the 44 majors offered at LBC,Elementary Education was the most popular with 391 students.A majority of students sought a Bachelor ofScience degree while only 22 were enrolled in the Associate of Art program which isonly in its second year. For the first time, advance registration took place in April for classes ofthe 1982fall semester.

Student life
Studen t lifeis as important to a college as the academics. The activities this year usually kept the social-minded students busy. Others buckled down to the grind as summer tans faded out of existence. The evolution-creation debate brought the controversial issue to LBC. The burning down of the barn again drew attention to LBC. Chapel had many interesting speakers, which challenged the students with the Word of God. They left a positive impact on the students.The year at LBC provided many students with memories which will be recalled later inlife.

In themidst ofdazzling lights,tearsof joy anda stage full ofelegantly dressed contestants, Susan Lawman was crowned the 1981-1982 Miss Liberty Susan, a soft spoken, petite girl was shocked when shereceived her new title As therunner-ups were called, she said shefelt more like an observer than a participant.

said. Even now asshelooks back on that night,itishard for herto fathom that itreally happened
"I wanted toenjoy every minuteof it," shesaid Susan worked hard to keep herself calm, despite thefrenzyof emotion that sometimes occurs atthese events Sheknew shecould easily become a nervous wreck ifsheallowed herself.
As shemoved up through theranks of the ten semi-finalists and the five finalists, onequestion kept occuring to her," What am I going todo ifmy name isn't called?" Although shewas not afraid oflosing,shewanted toreact properly and todisplay the right attitude.
Her question never had to be answered though, because thestudents attending thepageant chose her to represent theschool asMiss Liberty.
Susan feels that the only reason she won wasbecause shehasshown people love, which is what everyone desires.
"I suppose as Ilook back I'll remember the excitement and I'll remember thehonor ofit, butI think most ofall I'llremember what people need and want The Lord hasenabled me tolove people and people need love," Susan said.
Dorm eleven, where Susan served asa resident assistant during hersenior year, put up a sign inhonor ofher new position When shereturned that night, everyone inthe dorm was lined up in the hall togreet her
Adding toherexcitement, Susan became engaged toPatrick Elliot, a future pastor,a week prior to the pageant. The wedding, scheduledfor May, made herthesecond Miss Liberty to become Mrs. Liberty before herterm ended.
The new Miss Liberty, a math education major from Huntington, West Virginia,heard about LBC while still in high school.
"To tell you thetruth, I really don't know how I ended up here," Susan said. "I made up my mind I wanted togo to a Christian college,so I came here."
She didnotfeel shewassheltering herself in determining toattend a Christian college. Rather, shefelt she was arming herself for the future
LBC, however wasnotthe only college shehad tochoose from She made ita matter ofprayer and felt God leading hertoLiberty Shehasnever regretted her choice While atLiberty, Susan traveled with the King's Players drama team fortwo and a half years. Shealso fulfilledher goal ofbecoming a resident assistant, a goal shehad set ever since shevisited the campus prior toattending.
Because Susan loves working with and helping people,shemade being an RA her"ultimate goal." Sheconsiders an RA tobe a servant anda minister. Therefore shefelt itwasthehighest honor shecould receive.
"I felt they were theleaders of this campus, thespiritual leaders, the emotional leaders.I don't think anyone has more influence on thepeople in the dorms than theRAs," Susan said She also said itwasthehardest job she hadever held The most difficult problem inbeing an RA was the "emotional pressure ofdealing with so many people and so many hurts."She says, however, when a girl you have disciplined comes up toyou, putsher arm around you, and tells you sheloves you, itmakes itall worthwhile.
She warned that future RAs should, "be sure this isexactly what theLord wants you todo because it's not a game."
Susan plans toteach high school math for a career Shealso plans to be a godly wife and mother Notgodly "in a trite way," shesaid, "but rather a real example oftheLord."
The experiences Susan hashad while at LBC, especially herservice asan RA and thehonor ofwinning theMiss Liberty pageant will beexperiences she will draw knowledge and happiness from for therest ofher life

Homecoming
W eekends at LBC were often busy fivefinalists.During the tallyof
' eekends at LBC were often busy times, but the first weekend of October, Homecoming Weekend 1981, was especially full of activities and people
In addition to homecoming weekend, Parent's Weekend and Collage-for-a-Weekend began on Thursday. Parents came from alloverthecountry fora longawaited reunion with their sons and daughters High school students came to get a good look at LBC
The highlight of the weekend was the Miss Liberty Pageant. Twenty-four girls, who had been nominated by their peers a few weeks earlier,participated in the pageant
Merv and Betty Moore, formerly of Derric Johnson's ReGeneration, hosted the pageant The Moores entertained with songs and jokes between formalitiesofthe pageant After the judges selected ten semi-finalists, the Moores questioned the remaining participants The questioning aided both thejudgesand thestudent body as they chose the new Miss Liberty The judges narrowed thechoicesfurtherasfive finalists were chosen The five finalists included Cindy Burr, Jacqui Hillard, Susan Lawman, Kathy Wilson and Sherry Hixon
Liberty Baptist College President A. Pierre Guillermin and his wife, Louanne, accept thededicationgiftfrom the studentbody. The Guillermins have been at LBC since 1973.
Finally the long-awaited moment came. Cards had been distributed to the students earlier, enabling them tovoteon one ofthe
fivefinalists.During the tally of thevotes, Ed Crowell,student body president,called for school president Dr A Pierre Guillermin and his wife to come to the stage Organizers of the pageant chose to dedicate the pageant to the Gullermins and students responded by raising money to buy a grandfather clock, something the Guillermins had wanted for a long time. This was the firsttime a pageant had been dedicated
"We asked the students to show their support for a man who has guided the school through the years," Crowell said, "and they responded admirably."
Finally, the winners had been chosen All 24 contestants, wearing brightly colored evening gowns, took their places as the Moores announced the student's choices. The second runner-up was Cindy Burr from Zelienople, Pa. Jacqui Hillard from Cincinnati,Ohio, was chosen asfirst runner-up Chancellor Dr Jerry Falwell stepped onto the stage for the privilegeof announcing the winner
As expectant tension filled the atmosphere, the envelope was opened and Susan Lawman was declared Miss Libertyof 1981-82.Crowned and kissed on the cheek by Dr. Falwell, Susan stood indisbeliefthat she had been chosen.Itwas both an honor and a shock.
12/Student Life — Homecoming
"I felt extremely honored to be chosen to be in the contest, much less win it," Susan said
Even as the auditorium emptied amidst pictures, smiles and joyous tears, people thought of the upcoming Saturday night footbali game against Gardner-Webb.
A crowd of6,147 turned out only to see the Flames fall 14-9 A Mark DeMoss first quarter field goal gave the Flames a 3-0 lead, but a 50-yard punt return and a 52yard interception return put the Bulldogs on top 14-3.The Flames struggled to try and salvage a victory with a fourth quarter touchdown pass, but Gardner-Webb held on to win
By Sunday evening the campus began to return to itsnormal routines The many events of the weekend, along with thefellowship with new and familiar friends, made it an exciting weekend to remember.

'Moore' than entertainers
l\s the music resounded throughout the auditorium,smilescrossed theirfaces The smiles were more than a facade because Merv and Betty Moore, hosts of the 1981 Miss Liberty Pageant, showed that they enjoy their roles as Christian entertainers
The Moores said theword 'entertainer' is not a frightening word to them as itisto some Christians
"If entertainment is all we accomplish, that's wrong," Merv said
"Our program needs to be appealing," Betty said,"but the message must always come through."
An "appealing program" to the Moores ismore than simply average clothing and preparation.The Moores perform 15 to 20 concerts each month and strive to make each one a quality performance.Theirprofessional approach sparkles with enthusiasm.
Because of their professional approach, the Moores are finding opportunities to sing outside the church Their concertsin elude theme parks, conventions, high schools, colleges, clubs and fairs These opportunities have increased theirdesireto reach professional people
"Who's going to the lawyers, doctors and professional singers and musicians?I know hearts are open in the professional circlesofthecountry and not many people are going there," Merv said. "Christ went to where the people were and that is what we try to do.
"We can go intoa secular situation and
sing songs about Christ, and the people respond. We try to letthem know that we care about them."
The Moores have been singing about Christ for more than nine years,both individually and as Moore & Moore Merv travelled with Derric Johnson's ReGeneration for one year before meeting a young lady named Betty in the music office of a Denver Church Soon after they met, Betty auditioned for ReGeneration and was chosen from more than 1000 young people
Traveling became an instantpartoftheir married liveswhen only 18days aftertheir wedding, they were on the road with ReGeneration
After two years with the group, Merv and Betty sensed a desire tobegin a ministry of their own. The couple began traveling as Moore and Moore in October 1976
Merv and Betty enjoy their present ministryand both agree that part ofGod'swill is "loving what you do."
"The world needs to see Christians who enjoy what they do, and that is what we want to show them," Merv said
At this point,the Moores future iscertain. They plan to continue traveling and reaching out to professional people
"God can change our desires," Betty said, "and at that point we will do something else."
Until then, Merv and Betty Moore will continue to be entertainers with a message, who enjoy what they do Piul Stoltzfus

Fish to Gish? To o little to Doolittle?
Crews worked late into the night on October 12, 1981, to prepare the Liberty Baptist College Multi-Purpose Center for the media attention it would receive the following night.
On October 13, the Multi-Purpose Center became the focal point of cameras as the issue of creation vs. evolution reached the campus in the form of a debate.
By 6 p.m., two hours before the scheduled 8 p.m. start,several students already stood shivering outside the steel entrance doors. Ushers paced the floor making last minute preparations for the large crowd which was expected
Electrical cords snaked through the isles and were coiled underneath the wooden camera platforms. Television equipment and two tripods dotted the platform as media personnel reserved a spot enabling them to get the best shots
At 6:30, the crowd started pouring through the doors searching out the front row seats which had not been already reserved By 7 p.m., television cameramen and technicians donned headphones and began focusing and making various adjustments on the expensive cameras The bleachers slowly filled as more than 3,300 people streamed into the auditorium
The three men stepped onto the platform several minutes before 8 p.m to scattered applause. Dr. Jerry Falwell made the introductory remarks, explaining the rules the debaters were to follow. Dr. Russell Doolittle, a professor of Biochemistry at the University of California at San Diego, was introduced first.Applause followed his introduction.
"It's probably better that you do all this clapping before you hear me talk," Doolittle said, provoking laughter from the audience
At 8:15, the taped debate began
In his opening statement, Falwell said, "Religion and Science, rightly understood, are not enemies but they compliment each other."
Both Falwell and Gish stressed that the debate was not between science and religion but between evolution and scientific creation
Doolittle, with his arms folded, began his opening 18-minute statement with an explanation of why he accepted the debate. He said his colleagues urged him not to accept because all it would accomplish was "giving publicity for a special cause."
"I'm here because I'm a concerned citizen," Doolittle said, "and I'm worried about the future of education in America."
Doolittle said it was a "travesty" that the state legislators in Arkansas and Louisiana awarded equal time in teaching creation science.
"Evolution isa part of science, whereas creation isa religion Our country was founded on the principle of keeping the two separate," Doolittle said.
He spent more than 10 minutes in his opening statement citing a Livermore, Calif.,school which taught creation in the classroom using materials from the Creation Life Publishers, which are connected with the Institute of Creation Research.
"I though the best way for me to make my point to the heart of America, is to read from their materials," he said.
Doolittle began by reading from the book "Dry Bones," used in the Livermore classroom
"I'm concerned when materials of that sort are introduced into the classroom with nothing short of a blitzkrieg to put one narrow point of view before people," the professor said
Doolittle emphasized the age of the earth and the man-ape-like ancestry evidences which, he said, were the two most important ones Doolittle said most scientists agree the earth is4.6-billionyears old through dating of meteorites
Doolittle rushed the remainder of his slide presentation on the evidence of evolution near the end of his allotted time after condemning the teaching of creation in the public school classroom.
"This has been the fastest 18 minutes of my life," Doolittle said as time was called by Falwell, who moderated the event.
Dr. Duane Gish, the associate director of the Institute for Creation Research in San Diego, opened by calling evolution an "atheistic theory" and made a plea
for the scientific evidence, excluding the Bible or any other religious literature,to be taught in public schools
"The onesided indoctrination of our students in this materialistic philosophy isa violation of religious and academic freedoms. It is poor science and poor education."
Gish said the students should be challenged to decide for themselves which view is more credible or reasonable According to Gish, thisis good education.
Gish went on to present evidences for creation as he critiqued the big bang theory, which is based on an explosion of a "cosmic egg" of subatomic particles and radiation.
"For some inexplicable reason, this cosmic egg exploded and out of this initial chaos, our marvelously complex universe somehow created itself
"If evolutionists really believed in science," Gish said, "they would abandon their faith in the god of evolution."
In closing, Gish said the real decision was to believe, "in the beginning God, or in the beginning Hydrogen."
As he opened his five-minute rebuttal Doolittle said, "Dr Gish continues with more of his illogical logic, ifitcan't be explained by natural causes, itmust be supernatural
"I think that there's no doubt we will explain all these questions he's raised to everyone's satisfaction eventually," Doolittle said.
Doolittle specifically cited Gish's critique of the thermodynamic question and said there are no gaps in the fossil Doolittle commented, "onlyby an understanding of the logic of evolutionare we going to understand the problems thatwe faceas a civilization today."

Gish began his five-minute rebuttal by referring back tothe Livermore, Cal. classroom where the teacher used materials which referred tothe Bible.
"The materials that we have prepared for thepublic school have been carefully edited toremove anyreferences to the Bible." Gish said.
Gish stressed again that thequestion was "Howdidthings come about, creation orevolution? I saythe scientific evidence isoverwhelmingly infavorof creation."
"Creation science isa psuedoscience," Doolittle said inhis closing summary. "Toputitinthe classroom is to handicap America."
Gish responded by stating theurgency "that ourstudents beexposed toall of the evidence."
As the debate ended and thecameras were packed away, Doolittle and Gish were surrounded by interested students and faculty Although thetelevised portion ofthe debate wasover, theissue would bediscussed many times after the event.

Three thousand, three hundred people filled the LBC Multi-Purpose Center to watch the debate. The debate drew attentionfrom the nationalmedia including ABC, CBS and"The Washington Post." "We're covering the event in the context of religious broadcasting, " said ABC "Nightline" reporter Joe Benton.

w\hat is four inches square, has six colors on each side,costs approximately $4.00, and can leave a person bewildered for hours?
It is a cube of twenty-seven smaller cubes ingeniously linked together so that each layer of nine cubes can be turned without the colorful puzzle falling apart.
The Rubik's cube is the original,butit has several spinoffs including the Snake, The Pyramid, The Cylinder and many more The cube quickly gained the attention of students with engineering minds along with those who were simply curious. Students could be seen toying with the multi-colored toyon buses,whilewaitingin lineor while simply relaxing in their dorm room.
"It'shard to put it down if you can't do it," Simon Horn said Horn, a freshman from Stratford Upon Avon, England, said he had heard ofthecube in West Germany "Once you can do it," Horn said, "you become bored with it and it's no challenge anymore."
The challenging solution to the cube seems tobe the reason foritsmesmerizing effects.
The Rubik'sCube was created byProfessor Erno Rubik, a Hungarian sculptor, designer and architectural engineer.
By turning each layer, the color scheme of the cube changes. After it is changed and totally messed up, the object is changed to get all six colors back to the correct color scheme
Sounds easy? Sure,but once you try it,
the more you turn it the more it is messed up. So what do you do?
The answer is simple Purchase one of the many "solutions" available today There are books on the subject which give formulasforthecube's solution You could alsotakethecube apart But beware if you do this, and make sure you put it together with allthe faces intheiroriginalposition
If not,you may never be able to solve the cube again Talk about frustrating The solutionpreferred by othersis tobuy stickers and stick them over the other stickers. If this solution does not bother your conscience,maybe it'sthe one you prefer
While some cube addicts must settle for a purchased solution,there are those who are "naturals"at mastering the cube. One student from Chesapeake,Va.says hersistercan solve the cube inabout three minutes.Other students say they have seenit done anywhere from two minutes to 45 seconds.
A natural question to ask, is, "How many combinations are possible?" The number of color combinations possible is forty-three million million;more specifically43,252,003,274,489,856,000.Looking at each color combination one thousand per second, would take over a thousand million years just to see them all
The cube and its counterparts can all leave a person entranced. However, don't get too frustrated (don't throw itat your roommate ifyou failto solve the cube) If allelsefailsyou can always read thesolution

Junior PhilAtkins, from Annville, Pa., ponders next move on the cube. An unsolved cube on a shehad a certain attraction for many students whocouh not resist working on the cube until they solvedit until they become frustrated.
Janet Judkins, a freshman from Uxbridge,Mass., concentrates on thecube inthecafeteria which doubledas a temporary Student Union. Because ofthe cube's size it could be carried almost anywhere.
At first glance (and maybe at second glance) the diagramed solution seems confusing, but many stu dents memorized the method and could solve any mixed-up cube.

Homeawayfromhome
dach person hasa different personality, and theway they decorate their room isa reflection of their personality. Some preferred to hang posters everywhere, others liked to hang flags ofall sorts,orother items which made their room special Some preferred the paneled and painted cinder-block walls
Every student wasfaced with several common challenges. First ofall,where were they toarrange those many items they just could notdo without, yet still have room forthethree other inhabitants intheroom? Usually there was theswapping ofspace For example, youtraded shelf space for a drawer Or, youtraded closet spacefor desk space.
Some students brought tables,milk crates, and their own book shelves.This helped solve thespace problem to a certain extent.
Secondly, there wasthechallengeof not knowing what your roomies were bringing. "Inmy room, we hadthree stereos, four popcorn poppers, twelve suitcases, four bookcases, andeight under-the-bed boxes," onestudent recalled There wasonly oneway to solve a situation like that, send things home — even ifthey were necessities like stereos and popcorn poppers
Each room wasa reflection of the tastes and personalities ofitsoccupants. Some students liked the"apartment look," asdidtheguys indormone, room three They converted oneof the bunks into twosingle beds, hung pictures, setoutplants,andscattered rugs "We like thelook, itmakes usfeel more athome," said Robert Burton,a senior from Pinole,Calif.
Another way todecorate theroom was tobe totally creative aswasAlan Springs, a junior from Greenville, S.C., who draped a full size parachute from his ceiling. "It breaks themonotony of your regular cubical," he remarked "Ijust purchased itfrom the Army(continued on page 20)

Whethe r it is colors, styles or attitudes, prep mean s
Different things to different people
Oust as opinions vary inpolitics, so opinions dominate talk concerning prep
What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word prep? That small word carries with itdifferent meaningsand variousdegrees ofpositiveornegativefeeling Here are some ofthe answers to that question.
"green pants and a pink shirt"
"alligators"
"monograms and ribbons"
"green, pink, and plaids"
"security in a group"
"Izod, Lacoste or a brand name"
"rich"
"docksiders"
me Each answer provides a differentinsight intoa subject which every college student must deal with when he or she enters that school where no one was raised exactly the same way and itseems no one comes from the same background.
LBC would not be classified as a prep
school,but the firsttime a student notices a peer wearing pink and green,orany other colors which cause one to look twice, the person forms an immediate opinion Not only about the clothes,but also,more than likely, about the person
Many students feel they can immediately identify a preppy person because of the clothes or colors. Others said it is necessary to know the person
"You have to know the person's personality to know if they're really preppy or not," one student said "It's not just the clothes they wear."
Another student added, "You have to make a distinction between the lifestyle and the clothes."
Lifestyle or attitude is also a common answer used to define prep. Prep isoften associated with money or the higher class
because most true prep clothes, or name brands, are expensive Some say prep is "spending more money than necessary for a name brand."
Many associate thiswealth with an arrogance or 'stuck up'attitude
"People that have an air of sophistication about them usually aren't liked by other people,"one male student said "The prep style goes with that kind of person."
Others disagree
"The stereotype is that they have an arrogant outlook, but this isn't always true," said one person.A girl commented, "If you're preppy, you're higher class It's expensive to be a prep and stuck up is associated with being rich, but I don'tthink they're any different than I am They may have more money than me, but that doesn't mean I can't talk to them."
The supposed authority on Prep, "The OfficialPreppy Handbook," mentions money as something that is nice to have but should not be talked about.The Handbook never mentions arrogance as a preppy requirement
The book mentions the Prep value system, which includes: consistency (tradition), nonchalance, charm and discipline The Handbook also mentions fashion fundamentals These tips include conservatism, neatness, attention to detail,practicality and quality
Some students who do not consider themselves preppy, wear brand names clothes or prep style clothes simply for comfort One female student admitted,"it was the 'in' thing todo so I bought them."

It should also be noted that most students differentiate between prep style and Ivy League style.Ivy League isassociated with navy blue blazers,wool or tweed jackets, narrow ties and button-down collar shirts
Itisusually thought of as more conservative and classy in contrast to casual prep styles But in comparison, some students still feelan airor arrogance is associated with Ivy Leaguers — again possibly due to the necessity of money in order to buy that style of clothing.
Prep will always be a matter of opinion or personal preference Whatever you considerthe source ofyour opinion,whether it be a published handbook, personal preference, or strong feelings, remember that you can't judge a book by its cover and you can't judge a person by their clothes.

Tragedy in ancient Greece
aTor sixnights from April 26 to May3, audiences in the Lloyd Auditorium were transported toancient Greece asthe LBC drama department performed "Oedipus, The King."
The classic tragedy bySophocles opens in thecity of Thebes in ancient Greece, which isinthethroes ofa deadly plague Oedipus, the king (Glenn Williams), distressed at the suffering of his subjects, attempts to disclose the supernatural
cause ofthe plague and toeliminateit.
In the meantime, Oedipus' brother-inlaw,Creon (Mike Salsbury) announces that thegods have shown thecause ofthewidespread disease to be the presence of a murderer inthecity— themurderer ofthe former king, Laius. A prophet of Apollo, Teiresias (Noel DePalma), adds to the dilemma by announcing that Oedipus, himself,isthemurderer ofLaius and isliving in sin with the former King's wife,locasta
(Julie Terrell), fathering four children by her.
Oedipus accuses the prophet andhis brother-in-law of conspiring to take his throne, locasta then intervenes forher brother,yet,intheprocess revealstoOedi-

which eventually envelopes and buries the house of the once great king
According toDr Don Garlock,chairman of the division of communications and director of the play, the part of Oedipus is probably the second most difficult tragic role to play He said that the transition of the king, who is feared, respected and honored, fallingtothelowestdepthsof dishonor and shame, is a very difficult concept for an actor to communicate
He noted thatit has been consistentwith alltheperformances thattheaudience, following the final scene, "sits in stunned silence" for a few moments before breaking into applause
"We're achieving what we're after." he said in regard to the audience response.
As a child, Dr.Garlock played the young page,who leadsthe blind priest, Teiresias, on and offthe stage,in the broadway production starring Sir Lawrence Olivier Dr Garlock said that Sir Olivier would strive for the same response for each perfor-
mance
Other cast members in the play were: Mike Hicks,Steve Redden,Mike Manosky, Chris Kersbergen, Tim Sauls, Mike Kle feker, Roger Hankins, Chris Bone, Paul Oetting,Valorie Dykes and Chad Achilles.
Technical assistantswere : Stephen Wedan,assistant director;Elmer Soden,technical director; Sharon Wheeler, head costurner; Rebecca Pruett, student director; Anne Benedict, stage manager, and Noel DePalma, sets and lighting
"Oedipus,The King" was the final play of the year for the drama department which has proved its ability to take an audience to far-away places in search of entertainment and life-likedramas.

The "On e Acts" gav e practical experience and put Knowledge into practice
1 he "Night of One Acts," consisted of plays ranging from "The Traveling Man" to "Man in the Bowler Hat." They were presented by Stephen Wedan's playdirecting class during the nights of November 19, 20 and 21.
Wedan explained that the general approach to the course is to provide some amount of knowledge that can be put down on paper,although most ofthe work comes from the actual practicing and performing of the olay
The class consisted of juniors and seniorsthat have been involved in the drama department hereatLBC.Each was responsible for the choosing of their play, the casting oftheirplay and forall elementsof production.
There was a variety of plotsand a total ofseven plays They included : "Impromptu," directed by Glenn C. Willams.One line inthe play described the play as, " A play
that portrays the people, the actors, and reality and distinguishes between reality and fantasy
"Sorry Wrong Number," was directed by Julie Terrell. It was about a murder mystery which displayed how men rely on mechanical devices to see them through the trialsoflife
"The Traveling Man," directed by Ty Taylor,was a play which provided insight intotheBibleversethatsaysitiseasier for a camel to go through the eye ofa needle than for a rich man to enter heaven
"Good Night Caroline,"was directed by Gail Hillard Itwas a play about a victim conniving a thiefwho had broken into her house
"Man in theBowler Hat," a playdirected by Michael Salsbury,was an extraordinary comedy about John and Mary — two very ordinary people, and their not-so-ordinary evening
"Sham," was directed by Robyn Garner. Itwas about a burglar who decided not to steal anything from a friendly couple but then realized that he must inorder toprotect their reputations as connoiseurs.
"Happy Journey," was directed by Sherry Petty The play was about a family's journey from Trenton, N.J., to Camden, N.J to visit their daughter who was ill Along the way, they found out the outstanding strength of their mother
The Mime entitled "Thief and the Mannequin," by mime artists Rebecca S. Pruett,Glenn C Williams and David Jobe, was about the misforutnes of getting caught doing wrong
The mime gave the adventure of stilllifebecoming reality and was used to fill gaps when changes of the play occurred.
The variety oftheperformances and the experience gained by the directors and cast members, made the "Night of One Acts" a valuable learning tool.

She stoops to conquer
1 he LBC drama department opened its 1981-82 season with a performance ofOliver Goldsmith's comedy, "SheStoops to Conquer." Theplay was performed onOctober 29-31 inthe Lloyd Auditorium of the Fine Arts Hall
According toRobert Allen, assistantprofessor ofcommunications and directorof the play, itwasonethebest examples of 18th century English drama Like other take-offs ofthe Restoration period and beyond, it satirized those who are self-de
ceived trying todeceive others
The comedy was thestory ofan evening in the home of Squire Hardcastle (Noel DePalma), the head of a rural English family Hardcastle invited theson ofhis friend, SirCharles Marlow (Derek Cooper)tovisit them, intending foryoung Marlow (Mark Pyle) to meet his young daughter Kate (Laura Branscum) Young Marlow, accompanied by his friend,George Hastings (David Martin), arrived only to be misled by Tony Lumpkin (Mike Salsbury)intothinking that theHardcastle residence wasan
inn Marlow complicated the deception by mistaking Kateasamaid oftheinnand her parentsas thelandlord and landlady Deeper confusion resulted when itbecame evident that George Hastings was going to elope with Constance Nevill(Ronni Ball), a cousin living with the Hardcastles. With thisstrong castand interestingplot line, the play proved to be an excellent production

Fire added another episode to the real-life story, but crowds cam e to see the LB C drama department re-enact
The familiar story
, I he LBC drama department took on the task of performing the musical ex\ travaganza, "The Sound of Music," February 23 through March 4 inthe Lloyd Audi| torium
One student who viewed the play exJ claimed, "It was fantastic,I really enjoyed § it."She echoed the sentiments of many. Rogers and Hammerstein could not have i asked fora betterstory line tosetto music than "The Sound of Music." Yet, as is ften the case,the realstory is better than he artist's version. Today thestory'sheroic is Maria Rainer the courageous patrirch of the Von Trapp family. She has a trong and dynamic faith in Christ which ^ was demonstrated in December of 1980 1when theVon Trapp Family lodge, situated I in Stowe, Vermont, burned to the ground Maria stood inthe snow during theearly morning hours,clad ina housecoat watchling 40 years of precious memories and ^possessions disappear Maria was later to J^say, "Losing money is no comparison "aWhat I lost was irreplacable." Despite her grief this renowned author, lecturer and ^missionary traveler summed up her deepest sentiments by quoting Job "The Lord Jshas given, and the Lord has taken away 'Blessed be the name of the Lord."
Maria has not lost her enthusiasm for
life Despite losing everything twice, she remainsadelightfuland colorfulcharacter This courageous body has not succumbed to hardship and trials.The spry, 74-yearold eagerly anticipatesthe completion ofa new lodgeonce again filledwithguestsand the music that has made this inspiring woman famous
Many people are familiar with "The Sound of Music" in one form or another Numerous audiences have been captivated and enchanted by thelovestory ofaPostulantNun and thesternCaptain Von Trapp Obstacle after obstacle isovercome,until the Captain and Maria become husband and wife to the delight of the Von Trapp children Their escape from the threat of German occupation and the successful flight to freedom has thrilled the heartsof many

Liesl (Erin Jach) is spellbound as RolfGruber (Roger Dail) warns her of ill intentioned suitors and assures her that he will take care ofher inthe song "Sixteen Going on Seventeen."
1 he "Sound of Music" has sentimental appeal to many people who remember watching the original Rogers and Hammerstein musical asa child Others have heard the familiar music and storyline yet have never seen everything come together inan actual performance But few peoplerealize the exhaustive efforts poured into such a play inorder toproduce firstrate entertainment.
The mountains and castlesof 1938 Austria were brought to the stage of LBC in February when the drama department relived the touching story of Maria Rainer and the Von Trapp family.
Opening night was February 23 and was the beginning ofeight performances Preparations began in early October as nearly 150 LBC students tried out for roles inthe familiar classic. The seven children were chosen from among 285 Lynchburg Christian Academy students who tried out.
Practices officially began in November, but memorizing the linesstarted much earlier.
For several weeks before the premier performance, the cast members spent nearly 12 hours per week in painstaking practices.There was music to learn and a script to be memorized There were steps which, in the next several weeks, would become mere unconscious routines.Individual scenes were pulled out and worked on separately.
One week before the opening night,the practices began run-throughs of the entire play There were occasional starts and stops as lines and movements were changed and redirected.Changes were expected as the director and cast strove for perfection;at leastas near toperfection as one can come with thepatternsofintricate lines, music and steps
"Musicals are harder to pull together," director David Allison conceded "It takes more time and work because of the requirements of the script plus the musical score and a chorus to integrate."
The "Sound of Music" was only the third musical ever performed at LBC. All three have been directed by Allison, who has been atLBC forfiveyears. Hisfirsttwo successes were the 1980 production of "Music Man" and the 1981 showing of "My Fair Lady."
An average rehearsal during the last strenuous week began at 7 p.m.afterafull day of classes. The rehearsal began with prayer, as the actors and director asked

the Lord to strengthen them as they performed By 7:15, almost everyone was in their places and the run-through began There was very little joking as actors concentrated on directions and expressions, yet the actors understood. After all,they tried out for the part expecting to work.
Certain comments could be heard during the practices
"Quiet!" Probably the most common, although itsometimes went unheeded.
"I blew it!Sorry."
"That was better,but let'stry it again."

"Where do I cross out to here?"

sciously and unconsciously moved through their lines and gestures. Other scenes sputtered and the cast stumbled over movements and words. However, since repetition is the key to learning, those troublesome scenes were rehearsed over and over until the motions became graceful and comfortable
"The pressure on the cast is so much greater when there is an audience because they're being judged every second they're out there," Allison said.
As the practice progressed, the people became more relaxed Occasional jokes and miscues brought smiles and laughter; yettheintensity remained importantand it could be called back at a moments notice once thedirectorcalled forquiet Laughter and giggles were often subdued inorder to continue with lines Fatigue was also ignored in order to finish the practice
The value of these long exacting rehearsals was quickly acknowledged by both the actors and the director
"Rehearsals are harder because everything is by inches," James Garner said "In the real thing, you just come out and do it."
Garner, a seniordrama major,landed the role of Captain Von Trapp.
Garner adds, "Rehearsals are also the most valuable time because that's when you really develop your acting skills."
According to Allison, the first serious rehearsal is very important to the overall performance
"You lay the foundation in the first serious rehearsal and build on that," Allison said "But the week before the actual play is the most important week of rehearsals because we do an entire run-through."
From a director's point of view,Allison said discipline and objectives are important to make a rehearsal successful
"Having objectives for each scene and then working to meet those objectives is important," he said."You must also have good execution by the cast."
Garner said the secretofa good rehearsal is "unhindered freedom."
"Unhindered freedom," Garner said,"is the one night that you come out and everything just clicks together."
Besidestheacting, theall-importantsets were planned and constructed The setbuildingcommenced fiveweeks beforethe opener,but mental planning began in October The setprogressed from an envisioned design to a sketched floor plan and front elevation Next,a "flat,"measuring 4 feet by 8 feet by 6 inches was constructed It was combined with other flats and painted toyieldthefinished product.The flat is the basic piece to any set and can be reused for other productions.
The technical staff included nearly 40 people,most ofwhom were studentsdividing their time between set-building and classes. There was little time for serious workers to participate in other activities. The majority of the crew were volunteers who considered the experience valuable
enough to devote their time and effort to their work
The challenge of building effective scenery and costumes involved latenightsfor themore dedicated students.Elmer Soden, a speech professor inchargeoftheproduction staff, said a good carpenter isnot necessarily a good set builder
"The scenery has to be lightweight,yet it has to be sturdy enough so it won't shake or vibrate," Soden said "It also must last for the run of the show."
Soden said the carpenters know how to build sturdy scenery, but the weight is often a problem. Costume designers entertain the same problem.Costumes must be lightweight yet lasting.
Effective lighting was the nextconsideration An actor's work becomes uselessif the stage is not well-lit Proper lighting can create a desired mood or suggest a time, and both of these are essential in the success of the play.
Work, organization, discipline, technique,and talent when sewn together produce a tapestry called drama.One without the other is incomplete, but when "everything just clicks together," it produces more than a past memory. Itproduces a present masterpiece fit for judging by an opening night audience.

Concert Series is mor e than music
1 he 1981-82 Concert Series began with the Cathedral Quartet from Stow, Ohio, on September 3. The southern gospelquartet drew nearly 1,000 people inthe LBC Multi-Purpose Center and sang oldtime favorites and new songs which thrilled the audience
"They were really sincere about what
they were singing, and you could see the Spirit of God in them," sophomore Hank Carbeck said "It was a real relaxed concert."
The Cathedrals were anchored by bass singer George Younce and lead Glen Payne who are members ofthe original Cathedral Quartet which began in 1964.
From the southern gospel style of the Cathedrals to a traditional style quartet, the Melody Four, from Grand Rapids, Mich., came to Thomas Road Baptist Church on November 6 The Melody Four consisted offour men who have been singing together for33 years Each member of the quartet has other full-time responsibilities and they only sing about once each month.

Learning to deal with people and effectively communicate the gospel, LBC students work in concrete mission fields
i'like isa heroin addict who livesin Philadelphia. Last summer he wandered into a church hoping he would find help; some escape from the need to inflicthis arm with a needle everyday
That's when Mike met Jim O'Neill who
was leading a group of47 LBC students. They were spending the hot summer working intheinner city ofPhiladelphia.
"I wassupposed tobe supervising him foracouple ofdays Hewas tolivewithus and stay inthechurch and work. He had been dry foracouple ofdays and it looked like he was really starting to make it," O'Neill said "Hewasspending time in the Bible everyday. He wasbeginning topray
with us and Ireally saw some signs of growth." O'Neill wasoptimistic. The pastor had told O'Neill tokeep an eye on Mike and nottolet himoutof his sight fortwo or three weeks On Saturday, the fourth day of Mike's stay, he asked O'Neill ifhe could go visit hiswife who lived acouple blocks away Mike was supposed to come back to the church at 6 p.m. for a prayer meeting with thestu-
dents. At 8 p.m.O'Neill received a call from Mike's wife. He never even made it home
"He just couldn't handle it Once hegot outsideand sawhisfriends,the temptation was toomuch forhim," O'Neill said.

Working in Philadelphia proved more humbling than glamorous forO'Neill "It hurt Irealized Ihad failed to understand the drawing power that the sin of a heroin addict had," O'Neill said."Itsocaptivates a person."
For thethird consecutive summer, the inner cities ministry has been operative at LBC Many success stories can be told about people getting saved. But for every-
one that finds Christ, there areso many, like Mike, that arestill searching
Last summer on May 24, 130students left LBC's campus tominister infour metropolitan cities: New York, Detroit, Los Angeles and Philadelphia.
O'Neill directed thePhiladelphia team, Dave Early headed up New York's team, Harry Walls took students toLosAngeles and Wilson Green and hisgroup covered Detroit
Dave Fleming andDean of Students Ed Dobson directed the financial and spiritual
matters ofthe teams.
The inner city ministry wasfinancedby money raised by Dr Falwell and the students
Pastor Tom Mahairas sparked the idea ofevangelizing the citieswhen hespokein an LBC chapel service during thefall semester of1980
Summer teams occasionally held street meetings their cities. HereJenny McCracken,Mike Pfau, Bob Hippey and Dennis Andersonsing as the crowdgathers in Philadelphia.
42/Student Life — Inner City
Dr Falwell shared with Mahairas his dream of planting churches in the major cities Since O'Neill had taken groups of students to New York City before,Dr Falwell appointed him thedirector oftheproject
O'Neill interviewed students who were interested in working in the cities and chose those who showed a "desire to grow in the Lord."
Probably the most difficult problem for thestudents lastsummer was trying to get people to open up to them, according to
O'Neill The people seemed impersonable Yet,atthe same time,theyounger people seemed to be receptive to the students. "Younger people tend to be responsive,"
O'Neill said
The students had to deal with other problems as well Living so closely with each other caused occasional tension, so the students exercised twotothreetimesa week They had devotions for 1V4 to 2 hours each morning. After lunch they visited door-to-door,went street and park witnessing and took surveys The girlsdid "a
masterfull job" of cooking, according to O'Neill.
During the evenings, the students got involved inthe ministries of the church in which they worked Surprise visits from Dr Falwell,Dean Dobson, Dr Ed Hindson and Dave Fleming would always boost the student'smorales.They alsoenjoyedskits, parties,banquets,swimming and otheractivities forleisure
Parting time at theend of the 11 weeks proved tobe "tearjerking"formost of the students Most ofthem hated toseeit end After two years of directing the inner cities ministry, seeing people saved and seeing people walk away without Christ, this is what the ministry has done for O'Neill:"Ithelped me toseetheworld and to see the need to evangelize our generation forChrist."
O'Neilland hiswife,Sterling, areleaving LBC to serve as missionaries inthePhilippines O'Neill shares Dr Falwell's burden for church planting He would like to see the churches themselves become moreinvolved inwinning and discipling peoplefor Christ After all,there comes a time when LBC students leave the cities and make their way back home or to school
According to O'Neill, inner city ministries are worth it because "churches are the hope of America."

Hearty joggers endure more than any postman Rll in the nam e of exercise
1 he furorofphysical exercisemay have died down recently, yet the exhortations to exercise can stillbe faintly heard
One type of physical fitness which remains popular is jogging The LBC campus and surrounding highways have become popular courses forjoggers.
What makes these joggers endure the cost or the mental conditioning or the physical agony of jogging?
Jogging, as most other sports,isexcellent for people who enjoy spending money. Clothing designers and running shoe manufacturers are capitalizing on ambitious beginningjoggers
The standard gray sweat pants and sweat shirts are now old fashioned forthe vogue jogger.The latest stylesfeature bright flourescentcolors. Of course, thesecolorsmust be coordinated with socks and running shoes
Besides clothes, the running shoe or sneaker is the basic piece of equipment for the jogger.Considering the number of brands on the market,the all-important decision ofchoosing a style and brand is enough to discourage some insincerejoggers.Most will say their particular brand isthe best,whileall others are inferior
No matter how good the running shoe is,most joggers must face another basic expense — medical bills. Where would runners be intheirongoing battlewith blistersifitwere notfor band-aids and vaseline? Blisters are as common to runners as sneezes and coughs are to colds. Shin splints are another anethema to committed joggers
Then, of course, there isthe ailing student who inches his way into the classroom Other students empathize as thestudent slowly lowers hisbody intothechair, whilegrimmacing in pain Alljoggers, atone time or another,face the dreaded sore muscles Every move becomes a chore, and after sitting through a 50-minute class, the pain returnsas thestudent rises to make the arduous journey to hisor her next class period. It takes 10 minutes toget tothe next class, even though it'sjust across the hall
One of the more favorable aspects ofjogging,some say, is the benefit of mental conditioning Dogs, hills,weather, and potholes all affectajogger's life Picturea healthy,spry jogger running at a leisurely pace along a tree-lined street Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, a lumbering dark brown form lungestoward thestreet One quick glancedoublesthe jogger's heart rate as the snarling dog rushes from the yard.
Some runners take great pride in boasting of their running speed No wonder they boast,running several miles with barking dogs nipping at their heels isan excellent way to increase speed
But ifajoggercan deal with theconstant fearofsavage dogs chasing him, he can withstand anything
Joggers can contend with running two or three miles every day at the same boring pace, over the same monotonous course.
Another good mind conditioner for the serious jogger isthe steep hill The hillcan separate the sincere from the insincere and the seriousfrom the undedicated jogger Even the average person standing at the bottom of a hill would hestitate and eventually sneak away iftold to run up the hill
The seriousjogger, on the other hand,risestothechallenge Every bone and muscle in the jogger's body pleads for the jogger to stop climbing,yet he will not The jogger ispsychologically calloused and runs all the way tothe top, resistingall temptation Of course, when the jogger gets to the top, he enjoysa few moments ofsatisfaction from his accomplishment and then fallsover from exhaustion This isalso a part of the physical agony.
Seasonal joggers must deal with the hindrances of weather In the summer, after running several miles,the jogger has to peel his tongue from the roof of his sticky,dry mouth In the fall and winter, ifthe jogger is not slipping or falling on wet leaves or ice and snow, he is not exerting himself A wetweather runner in the spring increases his agility Often, he must dash out of the way of a wall of water sprayed from a passing car
Potholes take many an unsuspecting jogger by surprise. A runner can judge his "success" each year by the number of twisted ankles he avoids from roadside curbs and potholes.
The perilsofjogging affect the pocketbook, mind and body, yet jogging's popularity is emphasized each day as students take to the streets to run and run and run
So, if you have considered the other options of physical exercise, and you are still seriousabout jogging,remember the risks and "take heed lest ye fall."

Battle of the elements
V^n a chilly night, April 6, 1982, the quiet LBC campus became the site of flurried activitywhen awooden maintenancebuilding burned to the ground.
LBC security phoned the Lynchburg Fire Department at approximately 8:20 p.m afternoticing sparkscoming from the barn.Over seven trucks responded to the fire and Commander P.G. Scott of the Lynchburg Fire Department said the blaze was under control within 25 minutes after the firemen arrived
Sincethefireengulfed theold barnwithinthreeminutes,thefiremen concentrated theireffortson protecting theone-year-old LBC prayer chapel and the WRVL radio
stationlocated next tothebarn.There was noapparent damage tothechapeland only minor damage to the WRVL power lines. For several hours the station was powered by an electrical extension cord stretched across the yard from the prayer chapel.
"We lost power for approximately two hours," WRVL Station Manager Jerry Edwards said afterwards,"but we hooked up temporary power to get back on theair."
The sub-freezing temperature and the wind gusting in the direction of the other buildings made work more difficult as the waterfrozeon thecoatsand helmetsofthe chilled firemen

The "Lynchburg News" reported two days later that the fire may have been deliberately set TheNews quoted Carlton Gleason director of groundskeeping, as saying, "Of allthe places [in the barn] where itcould have started, that was the most illogicalplace."Gleason said the Are started inthe northwest corner ofthe barn where there were no wires orequipment.
Damage was estimated at $100,000. According to Gleason, the fire destroyed about 13 mowers, including one riding mower valued at between $3,000 and $4,000, and power equipment used for drilling holes

They chose toleave their homeland because they had
A n indomitable spirit of freedom'
Wi ithspiritssomewhat dampened by the early morning hour and the chilling rain, students gathered in the LBC Multi-Purpose Center for one of the featured addressesofthe "Understanding PoliticsConference," February 9, 1982.
As the preliminaries were quickly executed,a wave ofexcitement engulfed the audience Dignitaries hurried to their places as the introduction was made In one sweeping movement thecrowd roseto greet the former Polish Ambassador Romuald Spasowski and his wife, Wanda
On December 20, 1981,Warsaw's most senior diplomat, requested and received politicalasylum inthe United States Inhis statement made at the State Department
Brian Sullivan
inWashington Spasowski said,"A stateof war has been imposed upon Poland,astate of war against the Polish people."
This was not just another formal announcement of an envoy's defection. It was the cry ofa man's heart as he realized his efforts to save his treasured homeland were in vain. "A cruel night of darkness and silence was spread over my country," he said
Reading from a handwritten statement, Spasowski had said, "Ishall not have any association — not speaking about representation — with authorities responsible for this brutality and inhumanity."
Now, the ambassador stood before the Liberty Baptist student body momentarily
country will be shaped" began the ambassador, directing his comments to the students
The Spasowskis shared Polish history and personal experiences as they lectured on the valueoffreedom. For 36 years they worked for the Polish people through a socialistic government Then came a time when they could make "no more compromises with our conscience." He explained the events building up to the defection of him and his wife saying, "We cannot be silent."
"The longing for freedom by the Polish people is overwhelming," said Ambassador Spasowski. "In our genes and in our veins we feelthe indomitable spiritoffreedom."
Spasowski said that it was Poland's Christian faith that has kept the hope of freedom alive within the hearts of the Polish people.
"We intend tofightforfreePoland foras long as we live," he vowed, adding, "We intend todo everything that isinour power to add to the strengths of this great country."
Mrs Spasowski joined her husband in reminding the audience of the privileges enjoyed by the free world.She also shared with the students the kind of persecutions students might face ifattending a Polish University.
"Faith in God isthe biggest strength in life,"she said."We must win because God ison our side."
In her closing comments, Mrs. Spasowski stated, "We will do everything in our power to keep this free world really free."
The ambassador concluded his remarks with a message to the students from the imprisoned Poles who participated in the struggle for freedom.
The gravity of his message and the dramatic decision todefect tothe U.S.had etched linesofconcern inthe face of Ambassador Spasowski
Underneath a shimmering flag, Romuald Spasowski pleaded with an audience of 4.000 in LBC's Multi Purpose Center to show strong support for freedom lovers everywhere
struck speechless by the warm reception that greeted him It was the first public speech Spasowski had given since resigning from what was termed as the "most distinguished diplomatic career inpost-war Poland."
"The time will come in the not too distant future when in your hands, in your minds and hearts,the destiny of thisgreat
"Ifthese people were allowed to speak, they would say they would rather die than live in bondage Because freedom, goodness and truth are,and always will be,the most precious values."
Truly, those attending the lecture were inspired and encouraged by the people who had given so much to gain the freedoms which Americans so often take for granted

Regular chapel services allowed students to be Challenged and informed
1 hree times each week the LBC MultiPurpose Center became an auditorium where students and faculty gathered to hear speakers ranging from pastors to Christian businessmen tonational figures. Every Wednesday an especially prominent national figure spoke LBC Chancellor,Dr Jerry Falwell,updated students and faculty once a week and brought a message each Wednesday
LBC's 1981-82 chapel services included such men as evangelist James Robison in September, 1981.Robison's sermon was entitled "Who are the Anointed? and included an illustration of eagles living like turkeys. Robison said, "The problem with you asChristiansand church people isyou don't know who you are.You arerighteous inChrist and you don't have tolivedefeated in sin.
"I believe with all my heart when you discover who you areand where you'reto function in this body of Christ, you will discover theplace oftheanointing inyour life," Robison added
Pastor E.V Hill,from Los Angeles,Calif., along with saxaphonist Vernard Johnson, were in chapel in November
Johnson thrilled thecrowd with his renditions of favorites such as "Amazing Grace," "How Great Thou Art"and "The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power." Hill's sermon, entitled "On The Road To The Pigpen," dealt with the importance of Christians not settling forsecond best
In December, 1981, former President Nixon aide and author of the best seller, "Born Again," Chuck Colson,spoke to students and faculty.
Considered one of the most powerful men during the Nixon years, Colson had been called "Nixon's hatchet man," and has spent over seven months inprison due totheWatergate issue. Itwasinprison that Colson became a Christian and, when he was asked to write an expose on Watergate, he took the opportunity to write about his conversion
Since then Colson hasorganized aministry to prison inmates
"I could never get used tothehorror of humanity dying," Colson said relating his first impressions of prison life. "They would just liethere on their bunks sleeping, day-in and day-out."
In line with this,Colson also noted that failureofour institutions,even with all the money spent on rehabilitation, stresses
that only God's way succeeds
He went on to challenge the students saying that they exist foreither the world or for God and that they must make a choice.
"Being a Christian means laying your life down forChrist's purpose," hesaid "It means we turn away from thepast andthe ways of the world with the desire to live God's way."
He then tolda story ofa friend livingina prominent area ofNew York City who was mugged one night before entering his apartment building He was left by his assailants in the gutter calling for help ina state of temporary paralysis. Colson told
how this man lay there for a number of hours as people from the neighborhood continued towalk by ignoring him, without any apparent concern
"Egocentricity and materialism — that, sadly, iswhat our country has come to," he said Colson closed hismessage by challenging students to"seehuman need, toreach out in the name of Jesus Christ, and to present the Gospel as an alternative."
EvangelistJames Robison spoke inchapelin September 1981.Robison'ssermon was entitled, "Who are the Anointed?" challenging Christians to live above defeatof sin.

Dr.Francis Shaeffer said inaFebruary 1 chapel service that ourgeneration, where the dominant concept of final reality is humanism, hasnoanswers foranyof the basic questions of life.
Schaeffer defined this concept offinal reality as the idea that silent energy or material has existed forever insome form and isshaped by pure chance
"You must getit stuck inyour head,"he said, "they have noanswers forthe basic questions of life. Itisnotjust a happen stance, buta reality Mathematically and inevitably, they cannot have answersfor the basic questions oflifeif thisisthe final reality."
Citing some examples, Schaeffer referred to metaphysics and Carl Sagan's theory that thecosmos oruniverse is eternal.
"You must feel very sorry forthisman as hestands there,a flyspeck inthe middle of an expanding universe, " he said "You must feel sorry, forthis manhas no answer tothequestion,'Does lifehaveany meaning?'"
He went on toshow certain corollaries that aredeveloped with a concept likeSagan's He explained that, with this mindset, the question ofthe meaning oflife is answered by the perpetrators ofthe punk rock movement, who, according to
Schaeffer, are saying that life is meaningless He deduced that on this basis (life being meaningless) itbecomes acceptable to exterminate human life when it becomes inconvenient tosociety.
Schaeffer further discussed thequestion of morals and thedifference between good and bad
"If itisa completely neutral universe, the answer isthat there isno 'right.' The (continued on page 58)

(continued from page 57) words ' good'and'bad,''lower,' and 'higher'all become meaningless."
Schaeffer also pointed toquestions concerning human relationshipsthatareunanswerable within the humanistic world view.
"Do human relationships mean any more than sex relationships," he asked, "or isthat allthere isto it?They have no answer forthis."
He went on toexplain how thisproduces a dilemna where longing for communicationand continuity inhuman relationships is met with meaninglessness inthe humanistview offinalreality The logicalconclusion, according to Schaeffer is:"Anarchism, meaninglessness, purposelessness, and destruction."
Likewise, Schaeffer illustrated how thereis no basisforlaw withinthis humanistic reality "Thewhole basis oflaw be-
comes arbitary, with theultimate consequence ofthelossofconstitutionalism and the rise ofmajority rule." He emphasized thatthesourceofinalienablerightsis gone ifthis world view istrue.
"Inalienable rights means that the state doesn't give them," he said, "because, if the state gives them, then they canbe taken away.On thisbasisthe Constitution and theDeclaration of Independence are utter nonsense!"
Schaeffer explained that the natural course of these unanswered questions leadsonly toachaotic society.Incontrast, human beings, whoare made inthe likeness ofGod, are unable tostand living in chaos.
"Humanism, where man becomes the centerofall things,leadstochaos Inorder to offset this chaos itbecomes necessary for some form ofauthoritarian control."
Schaeffer then presented the Judeo-
Christian ethic,which hasbeen the dominant world view uptoabout 40yearsago, as a contrast to humanism. The JudeoChristian ethic, according toSchaefferpresents a world view based onthe existence of aninfinite personal God, whose characterbecomes themoral law oftheuniverse "What isin line with this characteris right, and what isout of line with this character iswrong," hesaid."God stands thereas thefinalrealityintotalcontrastto mere material orenergy shaped by pure chance."
He pointed outthat with theChristian world view the idea ofinalienable rightsof the Declaration ofIndependence suddenly makes sense.Hecontinued bysaying that this wasinthemind ofthe FoundingFathers when they formed these documents On thisbasis,hesaid,one can fightissues likeabortion. Onthisbasislife hasintrinsic value.

Sandy McKasin, vicepresidentof the Educational Reform Foundation inDallas, Texas, presenteda twoday series ofslides and lectures on thesubtle teaching of sex-education and humanism in the public schools.
"The Christian view gives the answerto thesethingsand not theother world view," he said.
He concluded by adding that all the questions ofthefarmer,the shipyard worker,as well as the intellectual in the university,are answered by theJudeo-Christian ethic,andthat the humanistic concept of reality offers no answers forthese same people.
"Thank God there isanother view," he
said,"and that the final reality isnot material or energy shaped by pure chance — but He is there — theliving, infinite,personal God, towhom everything is not the same."

McKasin said. You must go back to the basic premise of the matter before you accept thephilosophy."
According to Mrs McKasin, many teachers do notrealize thepart they are playing in changing children's values. These values can beshaped simply bythe methods and materials used inthe classroom.
Mrs McKasin urged students torealize that "humanism and Christianity cannot exist side by side, butthey are mutually exclusive." She said students must be aware oftheteachings inorder to effectively combat theinflux ofthese humanistic principles ineducation
On April 26, Owen Brad Butler, board chairman of Proctor and Gamble, spoketo students and faculty Corporations exist under a privilege granted by society and thereforecannot ignoresociety'sdemands, said Butler.
Corporation leaders have a responsibility to consumers, employees, shareholders, thecountry and the community but,hesaid,they cannot neglect theirpersonal conscience
"Corporations are not just pieces of paper Corporations are groups of people who cannot andmust not check theirpersonal conscience at thedoor when they walk into the office," Butler said
He said corporation leaders must be careful not to misuse their economic power in decisions about boycotting television programs.
"The use of economic power to suppress the right of free expression, isareal threat tothis country," Butler said.
William C.Brennan, Ph.D.,noted author and lecturer on human holocausts spoke at LBConApril 23onthe parallels inphilosophies, semantics and ethical relativisms ofNazi Germany and contemporary America Brennan demonstrated the similaritesinreasoning used forthe extermination ofinnocent human beings.

Despite numerous turnoversand inexperience, individuals turned in many bright performances as hard work reaped some rewards
An NAIA division record that is still alive isthe Flames'four year consecutive extra point total. Sophomore Mark DeMoss hit 14 inasmany attempts during the season to extend his personal string to 46and keep the team streak aliveat 93,acollege division record. That translates into three consecutive seasons without missing a kicked extra point
Also in thekicking department, junior Mike Forslund punted 63times during the season for 2,484 yards Forslund averaged 40.2 yards perkick and became the first Flames' punter toaverage 40 yards in a

"Young football teams make mistakes," explained head coach Tom Dowling, "and good competition causes mistakes."

Team effort
VJiving thestudentsatLBCmajor college quality cheerleading wasoneofthe goals set before the 1981-82 edition of the Flames' cheerleading squad Experiencing a season ofboth victory andbitterdefeat, the LBCcheerleader's goal was to provide a quality of cheerleading of which the school could be proud.
The goal was "to become collegiate, which I think intheend wedid,"saidjunior
Ronna Nardo "Our goal wastobeable to go toa place likeJames Madison and look good, toknow what we're doing."
The squad, led by junior co-captains Paul Kurth and Lori Niznik, wascutfrom 14 members to 10 members thisyear. The squad attended anNCAA cheering clinic at Virginia Tech during mid-August. This year's cheering routines included avariety of flips, stunts, and pyramids during the games.
As theFlames struggled through a 1-9 football season, the squad worked hardto remain enthusiastic throughout the season Phil Kelly,asenior from Akron,Ohio,
who hasbeen a part ofthe squad for the past 2'/2years,stated that,"the main goal of thecheerleaders was to motivate the crowd to be enthusiastic. Through the crowd's enthusiasm, thecoaches want to win games."Kelly said that because of this goal, thecheerleader's success depended on theteam's success.
Kellyadded, "When you losefive games inarow,then facea Division l.school, how do yougetmotivated?"
Nardo said theplayer's attitude toward the cheerleaders wasalso important
"When you know theteam wants you there,it's not hard toget motivated I think it'san individual thing too," Nardo said
She added that crowd participationwas vitallyimportant totheirsuccess She said the basketball game against Tennessee Temple was thehighlight oftheyearbecause "the crowd wasbehind us."
Another highlight of the year to herwas meeting newpeople through traveling with the teams and cheering
The success ofthecheerleading squad rested solely onthe group's ability to work as a team during thegames Whether or not the team was winning on thefloor, another team was also competing — a team competing for the enthusiasm of the crowd
Nardo said that inorder to accomplish the necessary teamwork, the squad had to work toward the common objective of buildingsupport fortheteam,regardlessof whether the team waswinning orlosing
"It takes a lot ofwork," said Nardo "If each cheerleader isnot successful individually,then we're not successful together."

Consistency and character building was the main emphasis of the season as the Liberty Baptist College soccer team ended the year with an 8-7-2 record and, for the first time,went to the NAIA playoffs Second-year coach BillBellstressed thatapart
from using the sport as a tool forevangelism, the team's goal from the beginning was to make itto the playoffs
"Within a year they (the players) had reached something that they had never reached before," said Bell "I stated that

Tournament. In their opening round game against Central Wesleyan College, the Flames upset the top-seeded team, 3-0. Central only managed to make one attempted goal shot against the LBCdefense Liberty then went on to defeat Tennessee Temple in thetournament championship game.
Injuries totwo keyplayers atthe beginning of the season put anextra burden on therestofthe team But,said Bell, "Oddly enough, that's when we achieved good results."
Bellrefused tosingleout any individuals
as the main contributors totheteam's success, emphasizing team effort rather than individual accomplishments A few, however, should be noted Alan Springs, a ju nior from Greenville, S.C., wasthe recipi ent ofthe coach's award. Bell noted that "He has been a good example tothe youn ger players." Fullback Randy Zook, a sen ior,wasa stabilizing force for the Flames defense, while senior Bill Gehman led the team inscoring

After having an 8-6-2 record in regular season play, LBC entered into NAIA postseason competition. Inthe opening round oftheplayoffs,fourth-ranked Liberty faced the playoff favorite, Rutgers-Camden University.After playing the game tothe end of regulation time,the score wastied at 00.Inovertime Rutgers-Camden scoredtwo goals ending a hard fought game and the season for Liberty.
Of much greater concern to Bell than winning wastheimpact theteam had on those with whom itcame incontact. Bell claimed that during the past season in the post-game talks that he had with the opposing teams, 35young men were won to the Lord.

One story that Bell recalled from the season was, after Guilford had defeated LBC during theregular season, twoLBC girlswalked uptothe Guilford players and congratulated them on their attitudeand sportsmanship Bellrecalled thatthe team members were shocked that fans from an opposing team would do such a thing In the post-game presentation ofthegospel
thatBellgave theteam, 12playersaccepted Christ astheir Savior
"The fans can turn a team on or off," saidBell "Those girls were instrumentalin leading 12players totheLord. The team members were ready to hear; they were prepared."
Bellstated thatone ofhiseventual goals is to have a team that thestudent body would be proud of Butthen he asksthe
question, "What does the student body look for in a team? Hopefully one that would glorify God."
There were few changes inthis year's team asfar asstrategy,according to Bell "We can have the fastest team in the world, but ifthey can't pass, they can't play.W e are stillworking on thebasics."
Regardless ofwhether or nottheteam was successful during theyear as far as competition,Bellfelt thatsuccess mustbe measured by more than scores or statistics
"You areina nation that isgearedfor winners," related Bell,a native Briton. "If you're not a winner,you're a loser.I think that we can still lose games and bewinners. Ithink that we have toshow something to the student body that they can appreciate."
Even though the team succeeded in their goal of reaching NAIA post-season competition, Bell feels that they have not achieved the consistent results thatare necessary for a championship team "Iwould say thatas acoach you'renever satisfied. Iwill never be satisfied with one, two, or three performances I'll besatisfiedwith one, two, orthreegood seasons Consistency is notoneortwogames."

A rebuilding yeor
1 he 1981-82 women's volleyball team struggled through what was termed a rebuilding year as they posted an 18-19 record and finished fifth inthe VAIAW State tournament
The youthful 11-member team,made up of seven freshmen, gained valuable experience and, according to the players, were more unified than any previous team.
The team also had to adjust to a new coach First-year coach Beth Glass, an
LBC alumna, returned to take on the coaching responsibilities.
The team's troubles began early intheseason when three players, who would have been seniors, did not return to school. The team's only senior member, Peggy Edgreen, turned out to be the most valuable player and earned the Best Defensive Playeraward The restofthe team consisted of two juniors, two sophomores and seven freshmen.
At least two of those freshmen helped
establish a strong foundation for the future.Kim Kelly,from Windom, Minn., and Patti Lunn, also from Windom, were two standouts on the young team Kelly was voted most inspirational by teammates. Lunn earned Best Offensive Player honors as a powerful spiker.
Freshman Kim Kelly(25) sets theball toward thenet as Patti Lunn prepares toreturntheset. Kelly and Lunn graduated from the same highschoolandcombined as an effective set-and-spike team during the year.

Perfection is n o surprise
It was a season with no surprises as a dual meet record of 8-0 and the Flame's first trip to the NAIA Nationals in Kenosha, Wis.,highlighted the men's cross country season
With the level of competition unchanged from the 1980 season, the team dominated most of its meets. The Appalachian State University Invitational and the NAIA Nationals were the only meets in which the team did not come away with a first place finish The team finished sixth and 24th respectively in those two events.
A first place finish in the Campbell University Invitational opened the season with positive hopes The invitational included Division I Campbell University and the Citadel.Junior Rick Wilson broke a school record for a 4-mile course with a time of 20:05 The old record was 20:40, also held by Wilson The 22member team split into an A and B squad following the meet
"This gives everybody a chance to do better in a particular race," head coach Jake Matthes said "It also makes the A team hungrier in the bigger races."
Leaving the top nine runners at home to prepare for the Virginia Ten-Miler,the B team went on to defeat Eastern Mennonite College,Christopher Newport College,and Hampden Sydney twice to bring the team's dual mark to 4-0 The Appalachian State Invitational matched the runners against 13 teams including Virginia Tech, Appalachian State, James Madison University and Marshall University The A team placed sixth in the meet behind James Madison Ivan Solero and Rick Wilson, both returning members of the team, placed 14th and 15th respectively
The team proved itsdepth by capturing first place in both the NCAA Division II and IIIState meet and the NAIA District 19 meet on the same weekend. The B team, led by second place finisher Robert Holter,took first place in the State meet. The squad •finished with three runners in the top 10
The A team won the District 19 meet by placing four runners in the top five finishers Rick Wilson, Ivan Solero, Roger Richards and Dan Stoneburner finished second, third,fourth and fifth respectively.
Four more dual meet victories sealed an 8-0 record for the Flames and marked the first undefeated season ever for the LBC men's cross country team
The victory in the District 19 meet marked the first year an LBC cross country team was eligible for the national event. LBC athletics only gained acceptance into the NAIA January 12, 1981.
Running in 22 degree weather against a 25 mile-per-hour headwind proved to be a hinderance as the team placed 24th out of 36 teams. Freshman Dan Stoneburner placed 105th as the Flames' top finisher
Senior Ivan Solero and junior Rick Wilson,along with freshmen Dan Stoneburner and Kevin Hopkins, paced the team, according to coach Matthes Solero was the only departing senior out of the top five runners
Itwas a year of no surprises but a year with encouraging results as the LBC men's cross country team took another step forward.

The pack may be congested at the beginning of the race but the LBC runners were often alone at the finish line during 1981. In the season's final meet against Virginia Military Institute, 11 LBC runners crossed the line ahead of the first VMI contender.

"This season wasa roller coaster ride," said the sixth-year coach "We were expecting to turn around last year's10-18 record, but we could not grab hold of consistency."
Youthful players,working to fitinto the team's system of play andthe disabling of three probable starters meant that many times three outofthe five players on the floor were freshmen. Only four playersre-

The team was completed with three transfer students and four freshmen All of the freshmen turned outbe "good investments." Malynda Hammersley, an AllState high school player from Indiana, earned the most improved award at the end ofthe season.
"Malynda's determination and hard work payed off in the improvement of her skills," coach Farver said.

A ae w took
If one word best describes thethinkingof the Flames' new head basketball coach Jeff Meyer, itispriorities.Labeled intense by some, professional by others, Meyer displaysadedication toeverything he does that isequaled by few.
"The priorities in my life," said Meyer, "are my relationship to Jesus Christ, my family,and my job Beyond that I don'tget involved with many things."
Meyer,thesonofa factory worker,grew up in Reynolds, Indiana, a town with a population of about 500 The third ofsix children, Meyer was raised as a Lutheran. It wasn't until Meyer was attending high school and hisbasketball coach Bob Overman suggested that he go toa Fellowship ofChristian Athletes camp did he hear the gospel and become a Christian.
After leaving high school,Meyer entered Taylor University where he firstplayed on thejunior varsity basketball team andlater started as a guard on the varsity team in hisjunior and senior years.During his senioryear the team missed thechance togo totheNAIA National Tournament playoffs in Kansas City by one point on a lastsecond basket
Upon graduation from Taylor, Meyer took a teaching jobat Landmark Christian High School in Michigan City, Indiana Besidesbeing a fulltime teacher,healso was responsible for building an athletic program from nothing
"The strange thing," Meyer related, "was the fact that I was the soccer coach and the cross-country coach at the same time — two sports in the same season."
Even though it presented some unusual challenges to Meyer, the experience proved to be worthwhile
"I wouldn't trade those two years for really anything," Meyer commented, "I think that they were very valuable tome in terms of my perception of the importance of education in society and how it affects young people."
After two years at Landmark Christian, Meyer feltthat if he was toreach hiseventual goal of coaching at the college level, he would have to return to school and get his master's degree He approached Pur due's head basketball coach Lee Rose about a graduate assistant position on his coaching staff After talking to Rose, he got thejob,even though almost 100appli
The Flames' new head basketball coach Jeff Meyer explains a new strategy to the team in the fourth quarter oftheLBC Lincoln University game "We em phasize that the practices areours (thecoaches),but the games are theirs (theplayers) "
cants had written about the position
"I was at the right place at the right time," Meyer said."He showed me a stack of 100 to 150 letters that people had written He toldme that I wastheonly one who had come in to see him personally about the job I was always told that if you don't know anyone, then you aren't going to get in; however,Coach Rose offered me agolden opportunity."
While at Purdue, Coach Rose and the Boilermakers went tothefinalfour ofboth the NCAA and the NIT,along with capturing the Big 10 title Meyer's coaching responsibilities included scouting and film exchange with the team during both the regular season and the tournaments. The whole experience proved to be a valuable lesson for Meyer and itgreatly influenced his style and methods as a coach.
"I went in as a young man wanting to coach. I didn't know what coaching involved. I came out with a real understanding of the time and commitment it takes.
The philosophy is first you creep, then you crawl, then walk, then run.
Coaching is a lonely profession, many times I got a feel forthat during my time with Coach Rose."
"I went to Purdue single, with a bachelor'sdegree,and two years of high school experience I came out married, with a master's degree, and two years of,coaching wise,a mountain-top experience I got married, that was a highlight I got my master's degree, that's what Iwent there for I got the opportunity to coach the NCAA tournament — that's the mecca of college basketball,thefinalfour For those reasons it was really a valuable experience."
It was during his time at Purdue that Meyer married theformer Karen Robinson Meyer takes great care to point out that she takes precedence over his job.
"My wife isvery sensitive totheprofession I'm involved in," Meyer said "She knows she's the priority She's very sensitive, very understanding. A good companion."
In 1980 Rose left Purdue and, with his entirestaff, went totheUniversity ofSouth Florida toa team that was ranked 260out of 264 Division I teams. In one year they
turned the team around, were 18-11 and, received a bid to theNIT
"We didn't do anything different," explained Meyer, "We took thethings wedid at Purdue and implemented them at South Florida. I think the most difficult thing to overcome was an attitude of 'we'relosers' to a winning attitude."
In early February Liberty Baptist approached Rose about a recommendation for someone to be the new head coach at LBC Rose recommended Meyer In commenting about Meyer, Rose related;
"Jeff Meyer is an outstanding individual whose professionalexperience ofcoaching in the Big Ten and the Sun Belt conferences, and of going to the finals of the NCAA and NIT,pale incomparison tothe contribution he hasmade through hismoraland ethical leadership inour program."
Meyer had sought a coaching positionat Liberty twice before, but both times the position wasn't available.
"When I sought Liberty Baptist College, it wasn't theproper timeand consequently it didn't work But when Liberty Baptist Collegeasked Coach Rose fora recommendation,he recommended me I believethat it was God's time, and his will, and it worked out."
Coaching a team that was the NCCAA champions one year and then 5-19 the following season presented a monumental challenge to the new coach. Taking over the program as of March 25, 1981,Meyer began rebuildingtheteam with both returnees from previous seasons and incoming recruits
"We don't have all the answers yet," Meyer commented early in the season, "because, in many cases, we don't even know the questions We have plenty of experience with the returning players,but a team chemistry needs to be developed."
Apparently Meyer hiton theformula for the right type of team chemistry because he took a 5-19 team and turned itaround into a ball club that did what many had said was impossible — send the Flames intopost-season play intheirfirstseasonof eligibility in the NAIA
"I hestitate to say that we've been successful, but on the other hand the kids achieved the goals that we set down prior to the season. Ibelieve in my heart that they have been successful Ihestitate to say that we've been very successful be (continued on page 96)

(continued from page 95) cause I believewhen you admit tosuccess, complacency sets in Whenever complacency sets in,then you are doomed to whatever youdo When you get complacent you're headed for failure."
Talking toMeyer, onewill immediately notice his wayofcalculating every move, every remark before acting onit Speaking for the most part in a slow, soft voice, he raises his voice ifhewishes to emphasize what he feelstobe an important point. Ask Meyer a question, expect toreceive adissertation.
Meyer (for example) about life'spriorities; "Living forthe Lord is more important than anything a person could possibly do. It has eternal value. You know, eternity begins now, it doesn't begin when you die. When youwork, youset goals,you disciplineyourself, and when you'reobedientto theWord ofGod, then you'llachievereally whatever youdesire.
Meyer about psyching himself upbefore a game; "Myjob is nottopsyche myself up, itisto understand allI can understand about my opponent, hispersonnel, what they do,andget our players ready to play them psychologically. We mentally prepare them, we physically prepare them. Psychologically weuse instruments to motivate them."
Meyer about the coaching profession; "Coaches arein thecoaching profession because they thrive on competition I believethatgood coaches work hard,prepare well, have superior intelligences and are highly creative I think that youcanbea good coach and still nothave a positive affect on the world However, I could ask, are youa good coach ifyoudon't have a positive effect onthe people around you? I don't know."
Meyer about his philosophy that first you creep,then you crawl,then walk,then run; "It's a philosophy oflifethat applies to building a basketball program You creep when you're an infant, 7-8 months old. Liberty Baptist basketball wasin the fetal stage when I arrived last March.The respect that we hadamong our peerswas itstill is, very limited People don't respect Liberty Baptist basketball I really felt like the program lacked continuity, it lacked support
"Right now, I believe we're creeping, maybe getting ready to crawl. How long is it going totake toget tothe running stage? I hope by somewhere in the next year. Ideally itwould happn thisyear.W e could win the next two,next three games and be at Kansas city I'dsaythen we'dbe running."
"He likes to pull one out," Flames Sports Network commentator Jerry Edwards pointed outafter theplayoff game
against Norfolk State, "toforce them to play his kind ofbasketball."
His kind ofbasketball is intense. Meyer spends most ofhis time during the game kneeling in front of the team bench He i shouts commands to his players only when hefeels that itwould serve hispurpose. Rarely onetolet his emotion show, 1 Meyer occasionally willallow his intensity 1 to escape. Sparring with a referee over aI call that hefeels isunfair oryelling toone 1 of his players, "Hey, what wasthat?"and I pointing toa spot on thefloor where the J player had made a particularly serious error, Meyer's voice strains as it grows hoarse towards theend ofthegame His voice is notasstrong asthe beginningof the game but his instructions carrythe same impact asever.
As theteam went through what Meyer termed the "Chinese torture tournaments," the NAIA district 19Playoffs, his intensity peaked atthe NAIA districttour- 1 nament championships.
March 3, 1982, Meyer and theFlames are inHampton, Virginia. There are 15 seconds lefttoplay inthechampionship game and the Flames are down 46-41 Meyer callstime-out and huddles histeam around the bench. The night before theFlames had defeated defending champion Norfolk State 68-66 inovertime. His emotionsare obvious ashestrains to establish a strategy to pull out the victory,i.e Meyerstyle As the clock runs down, itbecomesobvious that theFlames arenotgoing to be able torecover. When thebuzzer sounds, Meyer, rubbing his neck, starts towalk toward the locker room He stops suddenly, turns around, and walks back to the Hampton Institute bench. He stopsbriefly toshake hands with therivalcoaches, then turns back toward the locker room. As he makes his way through the crowd, he walks increasingly faster Reaching the locker room door, he throws itopenand walks inside Asthe door slowly closes, he pauses by a bulletin board before going through thesecond setofdoors intothe locker room

Takingtime after the game tocomment on the upcoming contestbetwenLBC and Norfolk State, Meyer jokes around with sports commentator Rocky Erickson. Usingbothradio and television appearances fectively, Meyer boosted the visibility ofFlames'basketball in Lynchburg.

concealed behind a wall in the shower room After a few minutes to regain composure, he comes out into the gym to speak with radiopersonnel who arewaiting to interview him. After speaking briefly with a newspaper reporter, Meyer walks toward thedoor.
"Are you running yet coach?"
"Right now," he commented with agrin, "we're at a fast walking gait."
"We've overcome adversity," he commented in another interview, "I think our players aregaining a better understanding of each other There's more continuity in the program as a result Ithink Norfolk State will remember us for quite awhile."
Meyer had a red-letter day on February 26, 1982 That day his wife gave birth to their second child, Joshua Lee Meyer is said to have commented to the doctor
when he was told that the baby weighed over nine pounds,"Idon't care how bighe is, just how long ishe and how bigare his hands." That day Meyer also received the NAIA District 19 Coach-of-the-Year award for his performance during the season
He remarked, "It certainly was a big day."
"Anything we receive isa direct reflection on the support we received from the administration and theassistantcoaches."
Meyer isa young man who has gained the respect of the administration and the students because of hisattitude and hard work His professionalism, hisdedication, and hissincerity ineverything thathe does are examples to all who come in contact with him.
"My professional philosophy isonethat isbuilton thepremise that thehigher you go up the ladder the more visible youbecome and the more affect you have on others."
Meyer affected the majority of those he came incontact with,both on and off the
court. His perceptions of life influence those around him totake a "new look"at what really matters in life

1 think they'll remember us for quite awhile/
It was aseason that had all the makings fora "once upon atime" fairy tale,except instead of a happy ending,the fable ended ironically with the hero killing the dragon, only to beslain bythe mouse.Theheroin thestory,themaninthegray suit, was the Flames' new head basketball coach Jeff Meyer Taking over a team that hada 5-19 record the previous season,Meyer tookhis traveling troupe ofdragonslayers and accomplished an amazing turnaround bygoing 15-11 and taking theFlames (pun intended) into NAIA District 19 post-season competition inthe team's first full season ofeligibility.
Signing on as head coach asof March 23, 1981,Meyer hadmore than a few outsiders staring at the turnaround heaccom-
plished with what had been amediocreball team Even though the change in the team's play was obvious, Meyer claimed that,"weimplemented the same patterns, the same philosophy as before."But when asked what toexpect from theteam inthe upcoming season,Meyer characteristically quipped, "we will have a new look."
"We willbeplaying teams thisyearthat we have not been successful against inthe past," related Meyer early intheseason, "this presents a great challenge toour team as weprepare forthe season ahead."
Risingtothatchallenge,theFlamesbuilt a strong team on both returning players and incoming recruits. Even though Meyer started ashead coach long after the prime recruiting season,hestillhadunusual success inpicking up players that wouldaccent theteam.

A major change intheFlames' basketball program was the addition of a new playing facility, changing theteam from having one of the state's worst playing courts toone ofthe finest. The refurbished Multi-Purpose Center features a tartan floor and seating for about 4,000 fans.
The home court advantage proved to be a bigoneas theFlames' record at home was 11-3whiletheirrecord onthe roadwas a disappointing 4-8. Twohome games that proved tobeimportant to the Flames during theseason were thecontests against Tennessee Temple and Bluefield State.
The Temple game, termed by Flames Sports Network commentator Rocky Erickson as, "the most exciting basketball game Ihave ever witnessed," drew a re-
cord 3,585 fans tothe Liberty gymnasium
The game was won onalast-second basket by Greg McCauley, who, from 18feet out, sank a jump shot to break a 62-62tie. Coach Ron Bishop ofTemple denied that the intensity of the crowd thwarted his team's efforts
"The crowd didn't hurt us," said Bishop, "the LBC press did. We didn't handlethe press very well."
Ifthe Temple game was the most exciting game oftheseason, then thesecond meeting between LBC and Bluefield State could be described as themost intensely physical game of the year. Bluefield, a team that was averaging 90 points per game the first time they had met the Flames earlier in the season, hadfallento LBC only twice in 15meetings The game took on the look of a grudge match as Bluefield tried unsuccessfully tolureLBC players into a fight atevery chance they got.They were rewarded with a 74-69losing score for theirefforts.

"The win against Tennessee Temple was a good winfor our fans," said Meyer,
Brian Sullivan
"the win against Bluefield State was a good win forourplayers, and thewin at Norfolk State wasa great winfor our program."
Enter the dragon, Norfolk State The team that was seeded first in the NAIA District 19playoffs Theteam that was a five-point favorite over LBC at the very least. The team that had gone tothe national championship playoffs in Kansas City four out of the last five years. Versus Liberty Baptist College. The basketball team that wasmaking itsdebut in its first season ofeligibility. The team that had a 519 record the previous season and now barely had itshead above a .500season with a 13-10 record inthe regular season
Coming into the tournament, LBCfaced Lincoln University in the opening-round game, LBC had beaten Lincoln comfortably earlier in the season, 64-51. Once again, the Flames, shooting 67 percent from thefield, easily defeated theLions, 81-63
"You have togive a team a lot ofcredit when itcanforce you toplay its game," said Lincoln Coach Melvin Jones
Meyer, whohadjust been voted Coachof-the-Year byhiscolleauges in District 19, was guardedly optimistic about theprospect of playing the top-seeded team in the district with less than 24 hours between games, nottomention thefour hour bus ride toNorfolk
"Itwill bea very demanding task," said Meyer "Our kids have done amazing things Icertainly am proud ofthem This would be just another feather in their caps."
The following night theFlames earned more than a fewfeathers intheir caps as they upset Norfolk State, 68-66, inovertime During the game, the Flames shotan amazing 78 percent from the field
The hero was beaming
"I'm stunned," said Meyer. "We've beaten ateam that has gone toKansas City the lastfour out offiveyears.This proves that it'snot the super talented a lotof the time that wins, butthe super dedicated Somebody hastogo to Kansas City, why not

Meyer then appealed forfans to come and show support for the Flames asthey faced Hampton Institute intheNAIA District 19 championships thefollowingnight.
Enter the mouse, Hampton Institute. The team that should be easy to beat If Norfolk State could be beaten The team that came into the playoffs with a 18-7 record The team that had blown away Cabrini College, 91-44, in the opening round ofthe playoffs.Versus Liberty BaptistCollege.The team that had just beaten the tournament's top-seeded team in a game that Norfolk didn't even schedulein theirmain gym. The team that had shot78 percent from thefieldthe nightbefore The team that hadplayed two playoff contests in the previous 48-hour period and was about to play a third inwhat Meyer called the "Chinese torture tournament."
The time onthe road apparently tookits toll as the Flames shot adismal 41 percent from the floor Over 500 LBC fans, far outnumbering the home crowd, witnessed as theFlames gave their exhausted best and ended up dropping the championship game, 48-42, the lowest score the Flames
tallied all season
Al Pearce, reporter for the Newport News "Times Herald", had some interestingobservations onthe throng ofLBC fans who paid $3.00 apiece towatch thehero and histeam trytopullout thevictorythat would make the dream of going tothe NAIA championship playoffs a reality
There were no beards or shaggy haircuts. One observer said they came from a Jerry Falwell mold-smiling, squeaky clean, and intensely loyal. Their only vices were designer jeans and Topsiders.
story has yettobeconcluded Meyerand his assistants, Dale Hatcher and Ed Vickers, succeeded inbuilding a program that has the potential tobea proven contender forthetitle that came socloseto being a reality this season
"We've built thefoundation this year," said Meyer, "Ithink Norfolk State willremember usfor quite awhile."
So ends chapter oneofthestory The heroand hisalmost victoriousteam closed out the season as one ofthe most successful basketball teams atLBC As the chapter closes, thehero can be heard to say:
They were fervent to the end, then left somberly after Hampton won. A few of the girls were brushing away tears, their companions giving handsoff moral support.
"Next year,as thisyear,you're going to see a lot ofeffort and team play."
So starts chaptertwo.
Meyer has a well-coached, well-behaved, well-disciplined team. His fans are that way, too. Even in bitter defeat, they were an impressive lot."
The hero, once again, was stunned.
"They saythe disappointment of losing is equal tothe amount ofenergy expended in trying towin. Itold them (the players) that they have nothing to hang their heads about We've gota class group of young men andthat's a reflection on the leaders of the college."
So, seemingly, ends thefable. Or does it? While a chapter may be finished, the

Winning ways
L-ver since the beginning of collegiate sports, coaches have come face-to-face with that agonizing decision: what todo with a team that has justcome offaspectacular winning season and has losttoo many starters? Well, coaches only have three choices: 1)they canretireon awinning note and leave the problems to anothercoach; 2) they can strugglethrougha losing season andclaim they hada young butgallantteam;or3) they can takeavery young team, upgrade theschedule to the toughest oneyet,andproceed towin anyway.
LBC's wrestling team simply cannot
seem tobreak with theirwinning ways,no matter how difficult things look. Even though they lostseven oftheirtenstarters and upgraded their schedule to include three Division Ischools — tworanked in the top20 of thecountry — they came away with eight wins against four losses At home they were undefeated
"In the beginning we were skeptical because thiswas our toughest scheduleyet," said Coach Bob Bonheim. "Since wehad lost so many starters we were, what you might call,pessimistically optimistic."
The Flames' varsity, consisting offive freshmen, two sophomores, a juniorand two seniors, took on the likes of sixth ranked University ofNorth Carolina, The U.S Naval Academy, also ranked in the top 20,as well as theUniversity of Pittsburgh.
Sophomore Howard Johnson applys pressure toa CampbellUniversity wrestler. Johnson,wrestling in the 158 and 167 weight class, completedthe year with a 25-7 record and became LBC's third NAIA All American.
Steve Behrns, a freshman wrestling at 167-177, com piled a 15-9-1 record and won theNorth Carolina A & T and the Pembroke State Invitational tournaments.
The Flames gained recognition byplacing 18thintheNAIA national tournament in 1981 Accordingly, they were constantly ranked in the top 20of the NAIA coaches
poll,ranging from 13th to19th They ended their "growing" season by placing 19th in the national tournament held atPacific University inOregon.
In season tournament competition, the Flames won three outright and never finished lower than sixth inthe seven tournaments they entered
The team's four lossescame,ofcourse, in their matches with the biggies — UNC, Navy and Pittsburgh. They alsolostby two points toCarson Newman on what Coach Bonheim termed a "questionable call."
Junior PatSole and senior Jim Matney were the co-captains that provided thesuperiorleadership thattook theyoung team so far.Sole wasawarded the Most Inspirationalwrestlerhonor whileMatney wonthe Coach's Award,honoring the wrestlerwho contributed themost totheteam.
Itwas Howard Johnson, however,who captured the Most Valuable Wrestler Award. Johnson, a junior, defeated last

(continued from page 107) year's national champ but lost his semifinal match by one point to just miss the national final He easily overcame hisconsolation opponent to take third, thus becoming LBC's third All-American wrestler. Johnson was also selected to travel toKorea and Japan with the U.S All-Star team during the summer of 1982.
John Bynum, wrestling at 150-158,took the top pin award, chalking up a record four pins in one tournament
As inall otherathleticprograms at LBC, the wrestling team has two goals — winning their matches and winning people to the Lord
"The Lord blessed our efforts," said Bonheim. "We had 35-40 saved and we witnessed to countless others.
"Our wrestlers are fairly well received when they witness;other wrestlersusually listen."
Probably a spiritualhighlightwas during the Navy match. Even though the Flames fizzled toa 34-2 loss,four seamen came to know the Lord.
For LBC, itwas a surprisingly satisfactory season in many ways. It was apleasant surprise to win more than they lost. It was great to receive national attention throughout the season It was good to find several very promising young wrestlersto fitin the mold ofgraduated All-Americans Jesse Castro and Aaron Thomas.But, pen haps best of all, in terms of wrestling, it was best to keep looking forward to next year If Coach Bonheim was pessimistically optimistic about this year, he must be overjoyed with anticipation for thefuture.

to the University of Jacksonville and Stetson University. Both teams blasted the Flames inthreeout ofthe four games,0-6, 5-19, and 0-17. The closest the Flames came tovictory was inthesecond game of a three game series against the University ofJacksonville. The finalscoreofthatcontest was 10-13.But,typical of theoscillating season,Liberty rebounded and won the next six of seven games, the loss coming when LBC split a two game series with East Tennessee State — a ninth ranked NCAA Division I team — bringing the team's record to 6-5
The Flames' problems were compounded by a factor that isbecoming a common dilemma for the majority of LBC teams, that is,the continual upgrading of playing schedules NCAA Division I schools proved to be the black spots on the Flames' record Competing in28 Division I

games, the Flames lost 15. Playing, by comparison, 12games inthe NAIA, including six in tournament play, LBC was defeated once.The Flames competed against such stalwart Division I teams as Virginia Tech, the University of Virginia, and James Madison University.LBC losttwice to Tech, once to UVA, and once to JMU.
"The better the teams are that you play," said Worthington, "the better of a club you become. Our fellas have met tough competition and are ready to meet just about anybody."
Libarty probably has only one more season in the NAIA. The Division I NCAA athletic directors willvote thisJanuary on LBC's proposed move intoDivision I. If the directors approve the step up, the Flames should become a Division I ball club going into the 1984 season Pitching proved tobe the biggest flawin the Flames'armor during the season.Losing several players due to disciplinary actionduring the firstsemester,LBC's depth on the mound was, shallow. While Liberty's pitching flourished during the NAIA District 19and Area 8 tournaments,it was, many times, sluggish during the regular season Towards the last third of the season the team's average ERA was a mediocre 4.94. Even with the power LBC pitchers displayed during the tournaments, the
Brian Sullivan average was still 5.00 going into LBC's final game of the NAIA World Series
Senior right-hander Doug Smith was the team'saceduring theseason Moving from what had been primarily a relieverposition intheprevious season,Smith proved to be theteam's primary asseton themound. He finished the season with a 9-7 record and an ERA of3.73. Smith's record can primarily be accounted for considering that he started inthemajority ofLBC's losingDivision I contests.InNAIA Area 8 play.Smith pitched a four-hitter against St Thomas Aguinas,a game inwhich Smith struck out the first five of six batters he faced.
"He's a good pitcher who throws strikes," said Worthington after the contest "Today his fastball, curve, and change were all working."
Smith ended theseason asan NAIA HonorableMention All-American and wasdrafted in the 28th round by the Minnesota Twins.
LBC's hitting was definitely weaker than theprevious year's, but still theteam had a respectable average of .311.Junior Darrell Manuel led the team with nine home runs, compared to a teamleading total of 19 home runs last year by Sid Bream, a first baseman now inthe Los Angeles Dodgers' farm system.

"This team scraps and hustles to win," said Brown "Last season we could always rely on Sid Bream for the big hit "Thisteam has had towork foreverythingit has got.I mean look,nine home runs leads this club We have to get key hits here and there to win."

came aliveand swept the tournament with a win against Spring Garden College and then a pair of wins against second-seeded Norfolk State In the Area 8 the Flames once again won three straight, a shutout against St Thomas Aquinas and victories against the University of Southern Maine and Geneva College.
"The thing that surprises me most is how we played in the two tournaments," said Worthington. "We won the first one and even improved in the second.
"Our pitchers took charge."
The same team that had slumped during the regular season was now the team that was heading to Lubbock, Texas, and the NAIA World Series for the second straight year Taking fifth in the nation last year seemed tobe a major accomplishment, but now Worthington and the rest of the team were talking about winning the whole thing.
"I'm not sure what we can do based on our regular season," related Worthington, "but ifour pitchers pitch the ball and our fielderscatch it, we'll do okay We can hit Ithink we're ready The way we've been
scoring runs lately, we just might fool some people. We might just take this whole thing here."
"Last year our goal was getting there," said senior pitcher Doug Smith. "When we did it, we said, 'Hey, we're here.'This year we're going down there with the idea that we're going to win it."
Going into the opening round of the Series, Liberty faced St. Xavier College of Chicago.With starting pitcher Smith, then reliever Dave Schauer on the mound, the Flames pulled out a 7-5 victory Steve Younts' two-run triple was the winning margin.
"1 was nervous last night from the first inning 'till theninth inning," said Worthington "I was sitting on the edge of my seat theentiregame and I was sure glad whenit was over."
That was the final win of the season for the Flames The Flames were defeated by

"We didn't hit well andwe didn't pitch well," related Worthington "This year we just didn't have theteam to win it Last yearwehad agreatteam,butwewere new to thewhole thing."
LBC's second appearance inthe Series has once again raised thevisibility of the program across the nation.Liberty has already hadfour playersgotothe pro ranks inthe past nineyears,and two were added to that number at the end of the1982 season In addition to theTwins pick of pitcher Doug Smith, left fielder Renard Brown was afourth round draftpick tothe Seattle Mariners. Brown hit .377 in his three year career atLBC. He also had15 home runs, 20 triples,and a total of 129 RBIs.
"We drafted himfor his speed andcontact at the plate," said Seattle Mariner scout Rip Tutor "He hasabove average speed."
"I wasreally hoping tobetaken alittle higher," said Brown "The Marinersreally hadn't expressed an interest TheTwins, Dodgers, Red Sox, and Brewers had."
Even with the quality players LBC had, the prospect of Liberty returning to the Series didn't look optimistic Yetthe turnaround between theregular season and the playoffs provided enough inertia to push theFlames intotheSeries, inspite of, or maybe because of,theirstruggles With a strengthening oftheteam forthenext season,itwillbe interestingtoseehowthe Flames enliven the program inwhat could be their final season intheNAIA.

The 1982 team posted a 27-13 record the first season of more than 20 victories. The team fought hard in the state tournament against a strong George Manson University team which has always troubled the Lady Flames
The young team, with only four returning starters,started the season strong and never turned back. The women tallied an 11-5 record early in the season before the second Lady Flames Invitational Tournament The team finished third in thetournament after an 8-4 loss toErie Community College of Buffalo,N.Y
A 15-6finish prepared the Lady Flames for the VAIAW Division II State tournament The Lady Flames ledthe stateDivision II rankings most of the year, but the
state title would again be denied them
LBC was the top seed in the doubleelimination tournament but dropped the first game 1-0 to George Mason in 11 inningsafteracontroversial callby the home plate umpire inthebottom ofthe seventh. After defeating the University of Virginia, 6-1, LBC again faced George Mason and again thegame was decided by one run, 32, in extra innings
In the bottom of the eighth inning, a walk and a single put George Mason runners on second and third base with only one out. Mason's second baseman then lined a single to right center field to squelch the LBC hopes
Despite the disappointing losses, coach Barb Dearing told the team after thetournament, "You have no reason toput your heads down They squeezed by you
"Go ahead and let all the pressure out now, but keep your heads up high," Dearing added
The team's desire to win was evident throughout theseason, but inCoach Dearing's words, the team's goal was not only to win
Karen Booker, catcher for the women s Softball team, guards home plateas she directs the attack on a Radford University base runner trying to take third aftera wildpitch. The Lady Flames lost to Radford, 67.
"The main thing they wanted was unity," Dearing said, "soanybody could look
at the team on or offthe field and seethe unity."
According to Dearing, unity was admittedlyanabstract goal Butthecoach attributed the team's success to their humility throughout the season Dearing said the prevalent attitude was "team before self."
"It was a desire to be soul winners and servants,and a desire todo whatever they had to do to uplift Christ," Dearing said
Although individual accomplishments were not emphasized, there were several bright contributions tothewinning season
Dearing cited sixwomen as specificreasons for the successful season; Karen Booker, Kathy Needham, Gail Keith, Michele Agnew, Marnita Stoltzfus,and Robin Potera.
Senior Karen Booker was selected to the All-State team and earned the Golden Glove and Most Valuable Player awardsfor the team at thecatcher position Booker's

leadership and inspiring play was an asset to the young team. Booker played mostof the season with knee problems after preseason surgery.
Senior Kathy Needham was also hampered by injury after suffering a broken cheek bone due to being hitbya foulball Needham turned ina strong performance in center field fortheLady Flames while she wasable toplay.
Junior Gail Keith also performed consistently asfirst baseman and utility player. Keith was anoffensivethreatatbatandon the basepaths as she led the team with eight sacrifices and25walks andstole 17 bases in20attempts.
Freshman Michele Agnew was perhaps the most obvious contributor to the team. Agnew became LBC's first pitcher to win
20 games (20-6) and tallied the lowest earned runaverage in thestatewitha 1.13. Agnew also led the team in batting with a .381 average,base hits with 33, andRBI's with 26 She was also selected as an All State player

1 he competition wastough, the playing washard, andeven ifa friend was on the opposing team, there wasnolet up in the intensity of the game A chance to play,to win,andeven to failwas afforded to allwhocompeted in the intramural athletic program. Intramurals, headed by physical education instructor RoyYarborough, enabled an ever increasing amount of students toenjoy playing a sport without the pressure ofintercollegiatecompetition.
"I think itgives people a chance who can't or don't want toplay an intercollegiate sport," said Eugene Sutton, "it provides a chance towork asa team."
The intramural program at LBCis divided into fallandspring seasons The activities offered this year included touch football, soccer, tennis, men's and women's volleyball,weight lifting,wrestling, indoor soccer, golf, outdoor track, bowling, badmiton, basketball and cross country. Of these,football,basketball,andsoftballare the most popular Beginning next year, touch football for women andbilliardswill be offered
When Yarborough came toLiberty Baptisttwo years ago toteach physical educationand tocoach track, he alsotook on the task ofheading upthe intramural program at the school
"The administration said they wanted it upgraded from what hadbeen a very lowkey program," said Yarborough
The first item on the agenda wasto get the information on thedifferent activities put together and distributed to thestudents. This year Yarborough had brochures printed up todistribute toall the students that participated in the program
The brochures contained information on how toassemble a team, what activities would be offered, and when the sign-up deadlines would befor the sports and activities Also included wasinformation on student managers, which arerequiredfor all team sports, penalties for a team if it
should forfeit, and rules on officiating. Scheduling was set up so each team played five to seven games Activities, such as tennis, required that theindividuals participating set uptheirown schedule forcompetition Teams that won50 percent oftheirgames were eligibleforthe playoffs where they could possibly play three tofivemore games.The members of thechampionship team ineach sport were awarded an intramural championship Tshirt
Intramurals provided activity forthe majority ofstudents atLBC Over 2,000 students participated in intramurals thisyear, according toYarborough
SeniorRandy Longglares atanopposingplayeras he attempts to evadehim. Flag football, usually played inthefield nexttothe guard shack, was themain intramural sport ofthe fall.
"Next toChristian Service,"relatedYarborough, "we have the biggest involvement of student activity on campus It's not uncommon tohave, inbasketball for example, 40 teams with anywhere from 10 to 15people on the roster.
Two members of theDoctors and the Reprimands battle forthe ball in the final minutes of the intramural basketball championships. Thegame, won by the Reprimands,was broadcast over the inter-campus radio station, WLBU.

"It gives a chance for a group activity," commented JeffKull,a senior from Greenville,S.C "It'sa chance to meet newpeople."
One apparent problem with the program was the lack of facilities Almost every available space was utilized to accomodate the ever increasing throng ofparticipants.
"As thestudent body grows, I'm going
to have toputthestudents somewhere," said Yarborough "As the college grows and builds buildings, they're taking away my playing grounds."
There were times the students hadto play games inareas nobody else wanted. "By the guard shack isa prime example They put grass out there,it's a rough area and there are still rocks up there, but the students made it work IfIwould try the same program at any other school, they would probably hang me," Yarborough said One improvement that wasnoticed during the spring semester was the use of the Liberty Multi-Purpose Center asthe site of the intramural basketball championship
game between theDoctors andthe Reprimands. Thegame wasbroadcast overthe inter-campus radio station WLBU
" We're the very lowmanon the totem pole," said Yarborough, "butIhope this will change."
Yarborough admitted that itwasaggravating sometimes when 22 or 25 people would tie up a facility when he had 500 that could have utilized itthe same night
"I'd like toseeus gethigher consideration," hesaid.
Yarborough's goal for the program is to have its own facility, adding,"Then I really don't have tocheck with anybody else," he said laughing.
More dependability is alsoaprioritythat Yarborough feels isessential to theprogram. "When I tellthe kids this isgoingto happen, they need toknow that it'sgoing to happen."
The success of theprogram has been attributed by Yarborough tothestudents themselves "They've made itwork They are willing togoalong andparticipate under adverse circumstances."
A student's academic responsibilities were a prime concern toYarborough For that reason any student that participated inthe intramural program must have hada 1.5 average before they were eligible for competition. "Idon't want a kidtoflunk out because he's doing intramurals all the time," he commented.
Yarborough, who is currently working on hisdoctorate at the University of North Carolina atGreensboro, iswriting a book about intramurals that should be off the presses at the end of the summer of 1982 He shares some strong feelingsonthe subject.
"It's very important that we do have intramurals,"said Yarborough, "because it affects so many ofthestudents. The underlying purpose ofintramurals is participation, to give the student who either doesn't have thetime, orthegrade point average,or theabilitytocompete in athletics an outlet so he canparticipate."

Band finds potof gold
1 he moving song, "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," from the Broadway musical, "The Wizard of Oz," was the theme song of the 125-member Liberty Baptist College Marching Flames Band The "Spirit of the Mountain" dazzled the crowds with their disciplined marching, synchronized maneuvers, and beautiful music
The band's first performance came at the half-time show of the first football game To get ready, the band members returned to school one week early During that week, Ray Locy, in his fifth year as director,led the band in 8V2 hour practice sessions.An 8V2 hour rehearsal makes for a long day, as any band member willconfess,but the sessions were necessary and worthwhile.
On Saturday, September 19, a cool, clear night, after the public address announcer bellowed "You may now enter the field,"the band performed theirfirstshow
They began quite uniquely Instead of the customary Sousa type number, the band played a slow arrangement of"Amazing Grace." After the opening number, JulieNelson, the field commander, mounted the stand and, with an energeticjump,signaled the startof Tschaikovsky's "Picture at an Exhibit."
While playing, the band maneuvered in designs ranging from arches, diamonds, sun burst, and other intricate angles The highlight of the performance came when the flag corps unveiled the rainbow flags which were concealed under the regular school flags The band ended their first performance with "Over the Rainbow."
By the end of the year, the band performed nine times. The performances included four home games,a half-time show at Furman University, the Kaleidiscope Festival, the Lynchburg Christmas Parade, and theAnti-ERA ralliesinWashington and Richmond
To add variety to the original program, the band practiced six days a week during football season, as they incorporated new maneuvers and numbers Locy pushed the band hard during rehearsal.
"You have topracticeinyour sweatsuits tobe inour band," fifthyear band veteran Steve Kerr said
(continued on page 132)
Fieldcommander is a demanding job, but Julie met the challenge and maintained thebeauty and poise ofatrue lady throughout.
Because of the band's enthusiastic sideline support, Tom Dowling, head football coach observed, "the band's good for an extra touchdownandahalf at every game."

No regrets
lost LBC students know Julie Nelson astheflashy figurewho dons ashining red, white and blue uniform tolead the marching band, but that's only onefacet of this unique person.
Born andreared in Huntsville, Alabama, Julie has the poise and beauty of a Southern Belle but also the friendliness and sense of humor found ina down-to-earth country girl When asked about her family, Julie answers inher rich Southern accent and her characteristic giggly humor, "I have an older brother, and Ihave a mo m and dad, andwe've had animals.Presently we have adog — am 1supposed tosay this stuff?"
Julie's favorite pastimes are listeningto good music and playing her guitar.Her other interests range from cross-stitching and cosmotology tohorseback ridingand waterskiing.
Julie's band career began in thesixth grade The first instrument she mastered was theclarinet, but over the years she has added the flute andsaxophone toher repertoire.Julie attended LeeHigh Schoolin Huntsville where she wasthe drum major of a 300-piece marching band herjunior and senior years. She enjoyed her high school band, butalong with theyearsof experience came "band burnout." As she planned for college, Julie had serious doubts about whether she would join LBC's band asa freshman.
Julie's arrival at LBC isas unique as Julie herself Julie heard about itfrom a friend inAlabama who attended LBC LBC interested Julie so shecompleted the initial application forms during the summer after graduating from high school As the summer months passed, Julie's desireto attend LBC diminished, and at onepoint she haddecided not to come About three or four weeks before school started her mind suddenly changed
"It was so weird God knew they(the band) needed somebody At first Ididn't want tocome toLiberty," shesaid, "then all of thesudden Idid." With no time to waste, Julie completed thefinal applica-
tion forms by phone intime toenrollfor the fall semester of 1980
Julie's unique story doesn't end there She arrived oncampus and was greetedby the frustrating, mind-wracking registration process.While inregistration line, areturning student introduced himself. As their conversation proceeded, the young man told Julie about the band He asked her if she hadany band experience After Julie related her high school band experience the young man said "Wait! AreyouJulie Nelson?"
Being a newstudent andknowing absolutely no one on campus, Juliewas flabbergasted bythequestion She found out later that the young man hadseen her application in the band office. The young man encouraged Julie to audition for drum major.Although shehad decided notto join the band, Julie couldn't pass upthe opportunity. She auditioned and subsequently became the first freshman drum majorin LBC's history.
Julie's freshman year as drum major was very successful and this year she leads the band as field commander Her major duties include coordinating the flag squad, leading thepepband, and writing programs for half-time entertainment. Practicing sixdays aweek and writing programs on Sundays ishectic and burdensome at times, but Julie finds her work rewarding andfulfilling
Julie regards being anexample her most challenging responsibility All the pressure and stressof being anexample culminated during theJames Robison Crusade in the fallof1981.Julie realized she could never be agood example untilher relationship to Christ wassure Julie received assurance of her salvation during the Crusade and has diligently attempted to bethe example she knows God wants herto be.
After all she has gone through, Julie says, "It'sstillbeyond me whyIwanted to come butI'm not complaining."
LBC's notcomplaining either, Julie Jeff Kull Organizations —

Because of the band's high level of professionalism, student pride in "The Spirit of the Mountain" increased. One student said,"Iwent to the football games mainly to see the band." Another said, "You can tell that bunch practiced a lot of hours."
Besides the vast amount of practice hours,there were also many other reasons for the band's success The addition of trumpets tothebrassline helped immensely Steve Reitenour, percussion director, arranged fantastic cadences for the drum section.
The arrival of talented experienced freshman band members alsoproved to be a big plus
The band's unity was the main reason forthe band's success After theeight-andone-half hour long practice sessions at the
beginning of the year,the band members sat on the field and enjoyed an hour of testimony and devotions
The closenesstheband experienced that first week continued throughout the year Every Thursday night, theband held a well attended voluntary prayer meeting. One band member said,"Iwas in band in high school, but nothing compares to being in LBC's band It'sgreat!"
Besides directing the marching band, Ray Locy also directed the Concert Band which performed during the spring semester The Concert Band isa group of 60 of the best musicians selected from the marching band by Locy The Concert Band had a spring concert and also played during graduation exercises.
The Concert Band traveled Southward to perform in Georgia and Florida during
spring break. Band member Mike Licona said, "The highlight of the semester was by farour spring tour."The band playedin seven different churches and many Christian schools,performing a mixture ofconcert music and sacred music.
During the sacred music segment, band members gave testimonies between numbers After the concerts,each band member attempted to "plant a seed" by talking with people individually.
Probably the most memorable event of the trip occurred on Friday night of the tour During group devotions, each member revealed his secret prayer partner.
Ifunity isto be found at the end of the rainbow, then the marching band and the concert band certainly found their pot of gold

The Pep Band was a big asset for the basketball team. The only home game the band did not play in while school was insession was the only game the team lost.

While many choirs areaddicted to mediocrity,the Chamber Choiris
Committed to excellence
/although Ron Banta hasbeen a member of theChamber Choir foronly one semester, he is totally sold on theChamber Choir as a learning experience "Every vocalist music major should be in the Chamber Choir. There's so much to learn, and Mr. Renas hasa way ofmaking you reach your potential while enjoying it at the same time."
The Mr Renas he referred to is Kim Renas, a graduate from Eastern Michigan University, who is now working on hisdoctorate at the University of Maryland
Because ofRenas'diversified trainingin the field of fine arts, he led the Chamber Choir ina repertoire that included classical music from the Renaissance to the 20th Century, sacred concert music, and gospel music.
If variety is the spice of life, then the Chamber Choir isdefinitely a hot pepper The choir sang songs such as the melodious "Choose Something Like a Star,"written in commemoration of the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana; a most
difficultpiecetoperform, "loPurRespiro;" and thedelightfully amusing song, "A Little White Hen."
While the type ofsong tobe performed may have been unpredictable, the quality of the choir's performance remained consistent Their sound was always disciplined, well-balanced, and smoothly regimented. One student compared the ChamberChoir tomarching soldiers."If you look at theindividual soldier while he marches, he looks rigidly disciplined, but if you look at the entire squadron, their movements flow smoothly Each choir member isalso intensely well-disciplined,which makes the

combined sound ofthechoir smooth and refreshing."
Throughout the year, the Chamber Choir sang during the 5:00 p.m service at Thomas Road. TheOldTime Gospel Hour Orchestra also performed in the evening services.
The choir also gave a spring concertin the Recital Hall, participated inthe Commencement Concert with the Concert Band, and sang during graduation exercises.
During Spring Break, the 35-member Chamber Choir visited 10 churches in Michigan In April the choir traveled to
Georgia andSouth Carolina for a weekend tour.
Traveling proved tobea valuable learning experience forthechoir members "I learned toopen myself up better topeople," Carol Nelson said. "We traveled in two vastly different parts ofthecountry, but because ofthe common bond thatall Christianshave,I realized thatsharing love and having fellowship is easier than I once thought."
Touring in the United States is abig project for a large choir,but the Chamber Choir tackled an even tougher excursion For four weeks during the summer, the
choir performed concerts throughout England and Wales.
Also directed by Kim Renas and formed in the fallof 1980,the Oratorio Choir performas a major choral work each semester Membership was open to interested members of the student body and community of Lynchburg
This year the choir performed Handel's "Dettingen Te Deum", Britten's "Rejoice in theLamb" and Vivaldi's "Gloria."
Renas has established a high and extremely demanding goal forthe Oratorio Choir Inthe next fewyears, Renas wants to mold thechoir into thebest program found on anyChristian college campus in America
In both the Oratorio Choir and Chamber Choir, Renas stressed that while many singing groups are addicted to mediocrity, These twogroups must strive for perfection inevery aspect ofperformance forthe glory of God.

If theministry of theAsian Smite team could be summed up in one word, that word would be "people."
As the 14singers andthree technicians traveled across the United States onweekends during school sessions and on summer mission endeavors, they reached out toall sortsofpeople,but they extended the same message toeach,amessage of hope because ofJesus Christ
Jim O'Neill was thedirectorofthe group thisyear His interest toward missions and specifically toward missions in theFar East was quite evident O'Neill left Lynchburg inJune tobecome afull-timemissionary inthe Philippines.
One student ontheteam, Ronda Skinner credits O'Neill with teaching herand the other members oftheteam an important lesson "Our leader has helped us see where we fit into world evangelization, whether it beinpraying,giving,or going," she said
Performing concerts across the nation carries with ita great responsibility.Not only must the group be completely sincere, butthey must be effective toolsin God's hands Another member ofthe team, Jim Agens,said,"We sing asong 'JesusIs Real inMy Life.'People really do lookat our lives tosee if Christ isreal ornot.We have to show it's true by ourwords and actions."
In addition to weekend concerts, the Asian Smite team sang in three concert tours
During spring break, and also thelast two weeks of May, the team traveled throughout the Northeastern section ofthe country Their greatest opportunity tominister occured during themonth of June The entire Asian Smite team traveled to the Philippines There the singers performed concerts inchurches,schools, and public parks.
Because people arethefocal pointfor

the Asian Smite team, thegroup's greatest joy istosee a person receive Christ. The singers willnever forget people likeDon,a 7-year-old boy from abroken home.A team member witnessed to him ina city playground In the midst of other squealing children, Don received Christ as Savior His heart seemed toburst with joy and the smile on his face provedit.
Jim Agens related another unforgettable situation."We were in avery smallchurch. While we were singing the invitation, a man thecongregation hasprayed for for two years came forward tobe saved It's thingslikethisthat makes Smite worth the effort."
Through theministry oftheAsian Smite team, themembers ofthegroup realized that God canuse anysurrendered person to make a difference in the livesof people around the world. Another team that traveled three offour weekends every month during the school year and formore thana month in the summer, the Brazilian Smite Team carried their message across the
United States and into a foreign land.
While school was in session the team usually visited three different churches each weekend On Saturday afternoons they arrived at achurch just intime toset up their multi-media presentation and enjoy dinner with different families in the church
Each concert combined a multi-media production, testimonies, andpreaching as the team ministered topeople ofevery age and vocation.
After theSaturday evening concert,all the Smite members migrated in small groups tovarious homes ofchurch members toenjoy thecomfort andblessingof Christian fellowship andhospitality
Early on Sunday morning the group traveled to their next destination where they ministered to another church After the morning service the team would enjoy another meal prepared by the church people Assoon asthey finished theirmeal the

Taxing astheschedule might seem,all eighteen of the members survived the year. When asked ifthe busy weekends affected his grades, second year team member Chris Walker replied, "Not really In fact, it hascaused me tousemy time
more wisely.I'vehad my best grades when I've been busy with Smite."
Probably the main reason Walker and theother team members became moredisciplined while inSmite was because ofthe fineexample of their leader Doug Achilles Leader ofthe Brazilteam fortwo years and now director of allSmite Ministries, Achilles exemplifies the disciplined andconsis-
tent lifeof a man whotruly belongs to the Lord. During the summer of 1981, the team ministered inBrazil for28 days.As the team traveled from village to village and city tocity, they performed a hectic schedule of concerts in churches, shopping malls, high schools, and colleges. In an average week theteam performed 20 concerts.Toaccomplish thisthe team left their homes away from home at 8:00a.m each day andreturned sometime aftersunset.
Some days were busier than others While ina city named Campinas the team performed nine concerts inone day.
Concerts consisted of six to eight songs which were all sung inthePortugese language. With theaidofan interpreter, the Smite Singers gave testimonies between the numbers. The different missionaries who traveled with the team concludedthe concert bepreaching andgiving aninvitation.
During last year's 28-day mission,the team recorded approximately 2,700 professions of faith
Nobody ever promised theSmite Singers that their trip toBrazil would beeasy, but all the team members agreed thatthe results ofthe summer campaign overshadowed any hardships they experienced
Looking forward to the six-week campaign planned for the summer of 1982, Chris Walker said the team's main goal whileinthelastmonth ofschool was toget ready for the summer strain "We as a team need to bespiritually prepared so we can win the trustofthe Brazilian peopleby our words and our actions."

A meaningful message
at Thomas Road, they also travel one of two weekends of every month performing inlocalchurches,banquets,and otherspecial television events.
Two of the more memorable events were the March for Life Rally inWashington,D.C.,anda rally for Christian schools in Nebraska.
At the March for Life Rally,the Sounds performed a patriotic program before 50,000 people
On a freezing November day inLouisville, Neb., thesingers appeared with Dr. Falwell on the lawn of Faith Baptist Church, a church closed by theNebraska Department ofEducation
Throughthe
1 he Sounds of Liberty have become synonymous with Dr Jerry Falwelland the "Old Time Gospel Hour."
But their television singing ministry is only part ofthegroup's hectic schedule
Not only are the Sounds expected to sing inthree or four services each Sunday
Because ofthe frightfully cold weather, Vanessa Davis, a member ofthe Sounds, fainted Although Vanessa can laugh atthe situation now, shesaid, "Ifelt terrible for quite awhile." Shequickly added, "1 went to a Christian school and I want every American to have that privilege I'd goout again andsing inthe cold weather if I had to."
Obviously being a member of the Sounds of Liberty demands much work and many hours,but Greg Ricejustifies his participation bysaying,"I'm inthe Sounds because oftheministry aspect. Through the medium of television, I canwitnessto
people I would never contact inanyother way."
PhilBlack,sound engineer forthegroup, said, "Being inthe Sounds hastaught me torelatetopeople better It has also shown me the importance of team work. The group is like a family and every member must help carry each other's burden."
Working with theSounds has allowedits members toview the school'sministry in a unique perspective. Lyn Derks, the
medium of television the Sounds of Liberty share a meaningful message

Monica Parson,former member ofthe"I Love America Singers,"said ofthe Sounds
ofLiberty,"Fundamentalists areoftensterotyped as book-burning Baptists who are out oftouch with reality But theSounds of Liberty totally dispel this image."
Instead, theSounds ofLiberty minister to people with poignant needs by singing the message ofChrist, theOne who can solve anyone's complex problems

Dave and Donna Thomas, along with theother members of the Sounds of Liberty, participated in the February March forLife rally inWashington, D.C. The president ofthepro-life movement, Nellie Gray, later presented thegroup withaplaque ofappreciation for their participation.
A n unforgettable year
V»jonsisting ofeighteen students who take one year out oftheireducation,the Liberty Baptist College Singers effectively promoted the cause of LBCandmost importantly Jesus Christ across theUnited States.
Throughout theyear thegroup visited approximately 40 states, traveled nearly 80,000 miles andperformed over 200 concerts.
Since this grueling schedule cansooner or later effect every member mentally, physically,andspiritually,ondays off the team enjoyed visits toSeaWorld, Disney World, the Grand Canyon, and othernational attractions. The team also enjoyed waterskiing excursions and bowling outings
To combat spiritual fatigue each member read sixinspirational books and memorized the book of James throughout the year inaddition topersonal study.
Existing in the confines of a Greyhound bus forlong hours is very taxing and patience easily expires under these conditions But the team survived admirably as they entertained oneanother with stuffed animal and puppet collectionsand by playing various games Most of the singers quickly realized that sleeping wasa great way topass thelong hours oftraveling.
This year's team chose Galatians 6:10 for their theme verse "Aswe have therefore opportunity, letus do good untoall men, especially unto them whoare of the household of faith."
Team leader BobGallina instilled in every team member a sense of obligationto serve each church and home they visited throughout the year
Unique to this edition of LBC Singers was the "FriendsofLiberty"banquets;and the arrival ofa newdirector
Along with Dr.Falwell,the Singers performed inmany banquets throughout the year In these "Friends of Liberty" banquets theteam performed the "Look Up America" multi-media presentation and Dr Falwell raised support fortheschool and preached
During the first semester of this year, Randy Rebold, who had been director of the team for4 Vi years, left theteam to accept a pastoral position ina California church. Itwasdifficult for theSingersto say good-bye toRebold, but they soonadjusted to the new leadership of MickVigeulle

M,lemorable isa good word to describe the Concert Choir's 1981-1982 season In theminds ofthechoir members are memoriesof concerts,outings,lateskates,Bible studies, and spiritual growth
Probably themost predominate memory for both choir members and the student body wasthe arrival ofa new choir director,Glenn Litke Litke came toLBC from Omaha, Nebraska, having graduated from Tabor College and the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. Throughout the year, Dr Falwell hailed Litke several times as a great asset totheFine Arts faculty
While groups like the LBC Singers, Youthquest,and theSounds ofLiberty provideacontemporary approach toChristian music, the Concert Choir shared withthe Chamber Choir and Oratorio Choir in the development ofa classical sacred music repertoire.
Members of Thomas Road Baptist Church will remember theConcert Choir because of the selections performed every Sunday morning during the 8:15 a.m service Other performances andconcertsincluded an October concert in the Lloyd Auditorium,the premier of "The Love Story," an Easter Cantata by Don Wyrtzen during Super Conference, the Christmas Tree, anda Spring Concert.
Assisting Litke inplanning concerts and activitieswas theChoir Cabinet.Paul Hammond waspresident; Melody Parson, vice president; Donna Smith, secretary; and Linda lllsley, librarian. Inthe Spring semesterKevin Thomas and Roger Dailservedas president andvice president, respectively.
Other activities making the year memorable for the choir were a fallget-acquainted party,group Biblestudies, and thesponsorship of the Sadie Hawkins late skate
during Valentine weekend.
An unfortunate moment which every choir member willremember occurred during the fall picnic While hurriedly trimming tree branches toroast hotdogsand marshmallows, Litke severely cuthis left hand The cut required 12 stitches,but Litke managed tocontinue choir rehears-
Reminiscing on the year, Hammond said,"Itwas avery good year I'msure Mr Litke will remember us as being his first choir at LBC,and we'll never forget his dedication and friendship."

Every weekend themembers ofYouthquesttraveledtolocal churches presenting a musical program and speaking withthe young people ineach church.Thegroup's initial aim wasto initiate a vision among
the young people The vision Youthquest inspired was avision ofgrowth andpower. Growth, because out of one small group the entire youth population can get turned on to Christ,andpower,because God can preserve thevision long after thesinging group returns tocampus
Traveling losesitsglamour after 13 hour bus rides,no dates on weekends, andno time torelax orcatch uponstudies When asked whyhemade the sacrificestobe on Youthquest, Roger Ott, a youth minor whose futuregoalistostartayouth camp, said, "Itravel inorder tomature. The experience I gain both from my leadersand
the kids will be beneficial to my future ministry."
Others on the team express the same sentiment. When Mark Vissers was asked if being a member of Youthquest was a worthwhile experience,hereplied, "Youthquest isworth every minute we investbecause of the changes in kids' lives. The letters and telephone calls from thekids reallyshow thatwearehaving an impact."
Because over 85 percent ofthose who make a commitment toChrist will doso before the ageof21, Youthquest's field is white unto harvest. This isthe storybehind Youthquest's ministry-dedicated young people carrying the cause ofChrist to the largest untapped resource inthe world, youth
Inthewords ofone ofthegroup'ssongs, each child or young person is reminded that"You area promise, you area possibility." Youthquest challengestheyoung people of today's generation to reach their potential by following God'sway.

Fantastic
One of SGA's finest efforts was the Christmas festival. According to students it was fantastic
af\ major contributing factor to an active, exciting campus experience is the Student Government Association. Throughout the year, Liberty's Student Government Association provided entertainment which fulfilled each student's need for"weekend regrouping."
SGA continued past programs such as late skates, late bowls, weekend movies, and skiing trips. With more students on campus than ever before, theAssociation also attempted toschedule more andbetter quality movies, such as "SonofFlubber," "Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again," "Ordinary Guy," and "TheBlack Hole."Atleast one activity wasscheduled forevery weekend, and onsome weekends SGA sponsored several activities
Inaddition toregular activities, SGAalso initiated new special events By far, the most spectacular event was the Christmas Festival Instead ofholding theChristmas banquet in Roanoke and charging admission, SGA waived the fee and held the banquet oncampus Vice Presidents Mark Stewart and Tom Vigneulle spent many hours inplanning thebanquet, which featured asteak and Seafood Newberg candlelight dinner.
Following dinner, Dead Ed Dobson and Dr Ed Hindson starred in"TheOld Time Hour" which was part of the Christmas spectacular held in the Multi-Purpose Center. Steve and Maria Gardner providedmusic andDr.Jerry Falwell appeared asSantaClaus Other entertainment included cartoons,three singing chipmunks (JillPruitt, Rick Vigneulle, and Mick Vigneulle)and the Sounds ofLiberty ascarolers.
As usual,VernardJohnson (Dean Dobson) overwhelmed the audience with his magical saxophone. Dr. Falwell (Dr. Hindson) claps to the rhythm of "Soon and Very Soon."
Justas Dr. Falwelland Emmit Godseyarean unbeatabletwosome at Thomas Road Baptist Church, so Dean Ed Dobson andDr. Ed Hindson were unbeatable as stars of "The Old Time Hour.''

Besides the Christmas festival,SGA sponsored many other activities which provided students anopportunity for
"Weekend regrouping"
Another addition to the SGA calendar was the firstannual junior/senior banquet on April20 Appropriately set intheluxurious Hilton banquet hall,thebanquet provided a "touch of class" for the upperclassmen and their dates.
Perhaps the most enjoyable event ofthe year wasthe May DayFestival which was hosted by theunusual and unpredictable gym teacher,RoyYarborough On aclear, calm spring evening, nearly 500 students gathered on the lawn between the academic buildingstoenjoy music and personal testimonies given by fellow students. Not only did the students enjoy some weekend relaxation, buttheconcert also encouraged everyone as final exams approached
When asked what he wanted to be remembered for,Vice President Mark Stewart singled out the Olympathon. Nearly 275 students ran laps toraise money for future special projects to besponsored by SGA. As of June, the promotion had already raised $9000.
SGA succeeded thisyear inbeing a major force behind student activities Next year's association, under new President Tom Barnes,willhave ahard actto follow.

Only the beginning
iln organization that moved into the forefront of LBC's attention this year was theLBC ForensicsTeam, coached by Cecil Kramer, instructor of speech. The team had approximately 25 members, and the number isgrowing rapidly
"I came to LBC this year anticipating that it would take four years before we would start winning trophies," Kramer said. Yet when he arrived he found thatthe motivation and experience were here;they just needed to be directed
And so, Kramer directed the group to prestigious tournaments sponsored by George Mason University, Appalachian State University, The Citadel, James Madison University, Washington and Lee University,Old Dominion University,and the College of William and Mary
Instead of waiting four years to win any awards, LBC's Forensic Team won 17 debate trophies and eight individual trophies insuch areas as prose and poetry interpretation, drama readings, extemporaneous, impromptu and expository speaking in their first year of competition.
Because of the recent victories in the field of forensics,LBC has gained a measure of respect from other academic institutions
In March, the College of William and Mary invited John Pyle and Harold Eddy, two members of the LBC Forensic Team,
toengage ina non-competitive debate over the issue of evolution vs creation
Taking the side of creation, Pyle and Eddy effectively defended their position i againstcharges made by thestudentscholars from William and Mary They alsosuccessfully uncovered theproblems with macro and micro evolutionary processes and asked the audience to weigh the evidence personally and honestly
Kramer realizes that he has a group of competitors he can be proud of.
"These students are showing that while displaying Christian convictions, they are also displaying the ability to reason," Kramer said
He also noted the team's strong solidarity
"Ialways maintain an open door policy with the students," he said, "here and at my home These are a very special breed ofstudents, thekind thatwant togo above and beyond the call of duty."

/Vthough they receive less attention, Liberty Baptist College forensics team members willtellyou they have won more contests than the school's football team
They're proud of winning awards at Randolph-Macon College, Washington and Lee, and Appalachian State
But they admit there have been times when a debate judge announced a topic about which they were ignorant
"Those are the times you try to argue logically," said junior Robin Miller as other debaters laughed. And team members usually have well-researched information cards
In addition to debate, forensics includes individual events such as prose,poetry and dramatic interpretation, and extemporaneous, after dinner, impromptu and persuasive speaking
The 20 forensics team members will take better communications skills with them when they graduate, according to team director Cecil Kramer
He said analytical skill learned through debate could be useful in many jobs.
Kramer teaches debate,discussion and speech fundamentals at Liberty Baptist
Last summer, Miss Miller and Harold Eddy attended the two-week Arizona Debate Institute to sharpen their skills
Eddy said he became interested indebate because his friends were
Also, he said, "It gives you the chance to discuss issueswith people intelligently,and you get to meet a lot of different people," he said
Karen Burcham wants to be a lawyer She said debate helps her think quickly
Rick Carmickle is studying to be a preacher, and forensics helps him relate to people.
"I also wanted to prove that Icould do something on the side," he said
"True intelligence comes through literature," said Doug Hoye, who mainly participates in individual events
Individualevents do not require the same spontaneity as debate, explained Hoye
Recreating literature,poetry or drama the way the author wanted itdone isa God-given talent, he said Team members agreed they have been humiliated by not knowing debate jargon or topics,or simply by botching a line of a poem or play
"That's the name of the game — improvement," said Kramer.
Sometimes the tables turn."Itgets fun," said John Pyle "You go in there and totally humiliate someone else."
In competing against schools such as The Citadel, the University of North Carolina,and Duke, theLiberty Baptist team members worried they would not be accepted.
However, they said winning earned them respect
Eddy said an initial roadblock during the competitions isother students' perceptions of a Liberty Baptist student
"You can't be intelligent We deal with that constantly."
Eddy said as fundamentalists, they also are not expected to support any issues that are non-fundamentalist
Yet overall, Kramer said other forensics teams have been hospitable and supportive of the year-old forensics Flames.
Forensics participants prepare for competition almost every day, sometimes working six to eight hours in one day.
The group isaiming for the national competitions sponsored by the American Forensics Association and the National Forensics Association
The tightly-knit bunch is determined
"We have to support each other a lot,"said Hoye "No one else isgoing to do itfor you."
Harold Eddy and John Pylegained respectfor LBC by defending Creationism aptly. Some Williamand Mary students who attended thedebate have written Eddy seeking dialogue and a different perspective.

The King's Players traveled nearly every weekend. With the creation of a road team, next year's King's Playersis
A growing ministry
Mrlr. David Allison,directoroftheKing's Players,firstsaw the King's Players perform at Asbury College in Wilmore, Kentucky, in1969
"Itwasthefirsttime I'dever seenChristian drama and it just overwhelmed me. I feltthat night that'swhat God wanted me to do," Allison said.
Thisyear,Allison'sdream todirect such a drama team came toreality when he found himself the sole director ofboth
teams of King's Players
Mrs. Helen Lloyd, director ofthe one team, took a leave ofabsence from LBC, so thetwoteams merged intooneteam of 30 students under Allison'sdirection. Also, instead ofbeing confined to the rules of thedrama department, King's Players functioned under theoffice ofthe president, Dr.A. Pierre Guillermin. That change hasbeen a definiteimprovement,according toAllison. The team
The King's Players performed"Once to Die" at various churcheson weekends. The playportrayspeople involved in an airplane crash who must face eternity after accepting orrejecting Christ.

now has the freedom totravel more weekends during theschool year Last year, the team traveled only eight times while under the drama department This year the team traveled almost every weekend during the school year Allison hasalready scheduled 14 weekend tours and a spring tour for next year.
Allison also placed more emphasis on combining music with drama He established a King's Players quartet and trio which sang before each dramatic performance.
"King's Players willalways be an acting group," Allison said. "But we want touse more music to help get people involved and excited about our productions."
But how didthemembers ofKing'sPlayers adjust to the changes? According to Allison, the students had a good attitude Even though a change inleadership is hard on some people,Allison feltthegroup handled itwell."Ifelt that everybody wanted towork forthegood ofKing's Players,"he said.
The highpoint for King's Players this year was performing "Once to Die" at Thomas Road Baptist Church. "They turned two preaching services over tous Pastors don't normally do that ina church so large," Allison said About 20 people received Christ that evening
Even with all of the success and improvements experienced by thegroup this year,the King's Players also had itsshare of problems. "The main problem was that we had too many actors and not enough parts, so we went to a system of understudies," Allison said Most college drama clubs would love to have this problem
Allison's goal fortheKing's Players was forthegroup tobecome themost effective Christian drama team in the country.
Next year another major change inthe group's structure will take place. Mr.and Mrs. Mark Lloyd, founders of the King's Players in 1958 and long-time supporters of LBC's drama department, have created a full-time road team which will present plays across the country for 11 months of the year
Paul Riel, technical director and business manager for next year's road team, said, "The Lloyd's are great people. They've bought a bus and all the equipment and theteam can't wait togeton the road."
Now with a team at school and a team on the road, the King's Players have a betteropportunity toserve God through Christian drama.
A traumatic weekend
W hen the King's Players left on Saturday,April 17,for a triptoCincinnati,Ohio, little didthey realize it was going tobeone of the most challenging weekends in the group's existence
The trip started out with everything going wrong. They had to use three oftheir own cars instead of thevans they normally rented,and some of theirequipment hadto be stored inan uncovered U-haul trailer It was raining,so they had toputa tarp over the trailer which fell off periodically throughout thetrip.
Their first scheduled performance was at Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church in Cincinnati Each cararrived, late,and atvarious times ranging from 1:00a.m. to 5:30 a.m. Everyone gotlittleorno sleep,butyetthey had to set up for the 9:00 a.m performance
After the Pleasant Ridge performance, the group headed for John Rawling's church, Landmark Baptist, also inCincinnati The performance at Landmark had good results, "but we still felt like we'd gone through toomuch trauma forthatto be it,"Laura Branscum said
The next morning, they performed "Once to Die" at Landmark Christian Schools They held an hour-long invitation with over 80 professions of faith and 200 students coming forward for other decisions Each member of the group knew then that therough triphad been worthall the inconveniences.
The three cars were driving back to LBC about 8:40 that evening with director David Allison leading the way,Ty Taylorfollowing, and James Garner in his Rabbit bringing up the rear
As thecaravan neared thesmall town of Point Pleasant,W Va.,Allison noticed that
Partof theKing'sPlayers group was traveling in Ty Taylor's Suburban van which skidded into anOldsmobile Delta88 near PointPleasant, W. Va.
the car on the other side of the road was coming very fast, so he was watching it closely.
"He had come leftofcenter and wasnot slowing down I ran my car and traileroff the road, and just barely, barely missed him."
Taylor didnothave a chance tostop.He skidded about 50 feet and hitthe driver's side of the other car,a Delta 88 Oldsmobile, head on Allison said,"When I firstsaw thetruck, Ithought that Ty, Laura, and Cathy Rawlings had tobedead, because thefront was so crunched up Everyone was alive,but Erin Jach sustained four broken ribsand a ruptured spleen, and she needed surgery.
Marcia Rankin wasalsoseverely injured. She had been sleeping on thefloor behind the driver's seat when the accident occured Several oftheother passengersfell on her,crushing her arms
It wasa hard night because ofthefearful possibility that Marcia and Erin would not live through the night By 4 a.m., Allison got word that Marcia and Erin were in stable condition
"That was oneofthehappiest moments of my life, when I found out they had both made itthrough the night," Allison said.
All but two of the injured parties returned to campus by the following Monday Both Marcia and Erin returned to their homes and finished thesemester by correspondence.
Looking back on theyear, and especially the accident, Allison said, "Basically, we justhad one simple prayer that we prayed We wanted God to use us in all of our services on campus and as we traveled. That was theprayer when we went toCincinnati, and that was theprayer atthetime of the accident, that God would receive glory from it.We believe Hehas."

MeLembers of the Selah staff began the year like any other yearbook staff members would We had goalsofmeeting every deadline and improving things we thought could be better.We even thought maybe we could get the books before school began so students could receive them when they returned in thefall.
The year ended like many other yearbook staff's. We were latewith nearlyeverything and the books would not be awaiting the students in thefall
We stilldid feel that we improved some things, and we realized there were other things which we could stillmake better.
A young staff and procrastination presented a challenge Three section editors were freshmen and only one section editor had ever worked on a college book before
We changed some things in the 1982 Selah. Some of the changes were simply for the sake of change while some were personal preferences.
In the student life section we tried to cover main events on campus as well as take a look at some happenings which made an impact on students We attempted to make good use of color and for the most part we felt we did.The sports section was enlarged to reflect LBC's dedication to a strong athletic program We

In the classes section we returned to individual portraits for the first time in three years
The staff averaged around 15 people with the majority being freshmen and sophomores As usual, it always seemed like we needed more people, but the job was finished eventually
The year began and ended likeany year for most yearbook staffs, but what happened during the year made the 1982 Selah unique

Student involvement in missions
1 his year Missions Club wasa changing organization Itremained therallyingand information pointforall those interestedin world missions,butitalso took on anew dimension.
From thebeginning ofthe year,thegoal of the Missions Club was enlarged to include more student involvement. Toaccomplish thisgoal the club establishedregional prayer groups which every student had anopportunity tojoin.Regions which were represented included the Muslim world, Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Asia.
Prayer groups metonce aweek to unite in prayer for the countries', people and
missionaries in their region Throughout the year members ofthedifferent prayer groups wrote letters totheir missionaries to discover current needs andprovide encouragement. At Christmas the groups packed and sentalbums asChristmasgifts to the missionaries which Thomas Road supports.
Each month theMissions Club heldentertaining meetings to provide Missions majors and allother interested LBC studentswith aglimpse ofmissionsand those missionaries whom "Godisusing to influence foreign lands for Christ."
Former LBC Student JoeHale,missionary toSouth Korea, and Octavio Nunez,
missionary to Ecuador, were among the featured speakers.
Strategically planned, thefinal meeting was by far thehighlight ofthe year Over 2,000 attended to hear the Asian Smite team sing and to view a premier motion pictureshowing onthe life of Hudson Taylor. Many students devoted their lives for full-time mission work that night.
Under theleadership ofPhil Greer, the prayer groups, club meetings and special activitiesdeveloped into effective tools of spiritual significance asthe Missions Club strove toward its goal oftotal student participation.

Making a difference
I o fulfillthe cultural and social needs of LBC's black population,theBlack Student Fellowship was created in January of 1982.
Mickey Baker, a senior from Abbeville, Ala.,was theorganization's firstpresident "I see our organization as a transition group Many of the black students come from bigcitiesand have had no communication with whites,"he said."For many of these students,coming toLBC is a culture shock."
BSF combated thefeelingsofalienation and homesickness by providing fellowship fortheblack students. To getthe organization started, the group had a party inthe television lounge
As the year progressed, the BSF held meetings twice monthly during the 9:20 a.m hour During these meetings, special guests spoke totheorganization BillGlaze spoke on the importance of using time wisely; Ricky Eason challenged members of the organization to work for Inner-City Ministries,and Dean Ed Dobson spoke on how to handle racial prejudice
Probably the most successful program the BSF initiated was the three to four member prayer groups.Each group had a prayer leaderand met atleastonce a week to pray for each other's needs.
On Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings, a room in the science building was reserved formembers ofBSF Tutors were available to give assistance and to motivate students toform good study habits
On May 1BSF sponsored a triptoKing's Dominion This experience provided another opportunity for members to enjoy fellowship and to make new friends
According totheconstitution,theprimary prupose forBSF istoglorify Christ and to minister to the community On many Sundays during the second semester, members of the BSF ministered to black congregations as they provided special music and worked in the Sunday School departments
Baker said,"We asan organization want to overcome any hostilities toward whites that any black might have brought to school with him."
Mark Armstrong, Vice President ofthe organization,said,"Both blacksand whites need to realize that our common Christian bond should allow us to enjoy friendship despite our social and ethnic differences."
According to Armstrong, the most important thing is for blacks and whites to communicate and begin to understand each other

Challenging times
In 1981,LBC's chapter of Young Americans For Freedom (YAF) received the Award for the "Most Outstanding College Chapter InAmerica."
"LBC hasproved itself a leader in the conservative movement," said YAF NationalChairman James Lacey atthe1981 YAF Convention "Their membership is composed of literally hundreds of dedicated future leaders for our great country."
As theLiberty delegation consisting of Jim Fenlison, Ray Jones,Greg Shaw,Julie Tinman, and Laura Tinman accepted the award, littledidthey know that one year later the very future oftheYoung Americans forFreedom, Inc. would be gravely uncertain
Before any of the disconcerting news surfaced, the 1981-82 LBC YAF Chapter inaugurated a highly successful membership drive Forty-five members joined the organization oftwo hundred
In October, LBC Chairman Bryan Kurtz shifted the college political organization into gear by sponsoring an "Afghan Freedom Fighters Rally." Karen McKay, who had recently spent time with the rebel forces inAfghanistan,showed actual films of rebel camps andspoke about thetragic denial ofhuman rights by Russia
Immediately following the rally, Ray Jones,aYAFmember,informed Kurtzof a major problem within the National Committee Theboard ofdirectors experienced a major splitandsubsequently fired many national staff workers. This placed the LBC YAF Chapter in a touchy situation. While wishing toremain partofYAF, LBC, along with many chapters felt a comradery with thefired staff workers. Thedissolution ofthe national staffcrippled the LBC YAF Chapter causing thecancellation of all meetings and special projects planned for second semester
Karen McKay, chairman of the Committee For A Free Afghanistan, spoke to YAF members and interested students about theRussian's denial ofhuman rights. Here students talk with MissMcKay after the meeting.

These developments led to an emergency leadership meeting to discuss the options available At this meeting theLBC chapter reaffirmed its commitment to Young Americans ForFreedom by founding the Action Committee to Save YAF.
The ACTS/ YAF organization set major goals and outlined a practical plan for reuniting Young Americans for Freedom,as wellas doubling the membership atalllevels ofthenationally organized group
Ray Jones and Greg Shaw have emerged as the leadersofACTS/YAF. They saythe plan isscheduled toreach itspeak at the 1982 YAF National Convention in California
Next yeartheLBCChapter willbecalled the Liberty Action Young Americans for Freedom. Instead ofthe chairman making most ofthedecisions, theLBCChapter has formed asix-member board Ray Joneswill be thechairman oftheboard.
Although YAF has experienced some disappointments andsetbacks,itishighly feasible that the LBC YAF Chapter will regain itsposition asthe"Most Outstanding College Chapter inAmerica" in 1983

1 he English Association functioned to supplement the academic offerings of the English department The Association provided opportunities for majors and minors in English to get to know one another and the professors inthe English area. Seeking to attract students to the field of English, the Association attempted to add enrichment and variety to the out-of-classactivities of students
Programs sponsored by the Association included literary films and critiques along with fine arts programs and socials. Special speakers included Chauncey Spencer, who reviewed the life and work of his mother, Lynchburg poet Anne Spencer; and Sheldon Vanauken's review of his book, "A Severe Mercy." LBC students and faculty, along with Lynchburg residents, had opportunities to participate in poetry readingsand dinner meetings which featured poetry and travels

Wise businessmen provide business students with Practical experience
l\s the number of Business majors grew to over 300,the Business Association enjoyed itslargest membership in LBC's history With the larger number of students came the greater responsibility of providingeach businessstudent with both apractical and theoretical knowledge ofthebusiness world
One good way the Business Association accomplished these aims was by having established businessmen relate their acquired wisdom gained from yearsof experience.The Business Association wasprivileged to have many such speakers this year.
Dick Hoskins,a very successful stockbroker, spoke on the future of the stock market and the adverse consequences of debt-riddensociety Rex Angel,a partnerin Coopers and Lybrand,gave the students a practical view of the recruiting process Dr. Guillermin addressed the vital subject of leadership. Dr. Falwell spoke to thejuniors and seniors concerning the Christian in the business world.
Perhaps the highlight ofthe year forthe business students came when Owen Butler,the Chairman of the Board for Procter and Gamble, spoke to the entire group of business majors. This was the first time any executive of his position in the business world has addressed LBC business students.
Inthefall ofthe 1982-83school year, the Business Association will experience a change in membership requirements In the past,every business student was considered a member of the club Beginning next year a member must meet a specified grade point average and pay club dues.
This will cause the association to become a highly competitive group of motivated and dedicated business students.
Along with changes in membership,the leadership isplanning better meetings, instructional programs,toursof business establishments, and other activities geared toward equipping better Christian leaders for the business world

Computer s quicken registration process
In line with the fact that Liberty Baptist College is characterized by growth and change, the registration and check-in procedures were updated through computerization to accommodate the college's lar-
gest student body ever Inthe fall of 1981, a record 3,262 students in the college and 143 students intheseminary went through registration in record time and with record efficiency as well
Improvements were made inall areas A greatdeal ofthe work which was previouslydone during and aftercheck-in was completed (through the aidofcomputers) prior tocheck-in This helped alleviatelonglines and made information about dormitories and post office box numbers immediately available.
Probably thegreatest improvement realized as a result of the computerized program was in the student class registration process According to BillPaul, vicepresident ofadministrative and business affairs, a process which once took students as
long as three hours to complete,took only approximately 20 mintues.
Another contributing factor to the success was thatfaculty members were much more involved in advising students Students met with faculty advisors, selected classes, filled out their forms in the advisor's office and simply dropped the completed forms in the registration area. The students were able to receive their schedulesthe following morning via theirdormitory resident assistant or through their post office box if they were off-campus residents
The computer process was alsoused for advance registration during second semester Returning students signed up for fall classes to lessen the workload for thefollowing fall.
As many businesses and colleges adapt computers, LBC also changes as itgrows.

Business isserious business
/Vspects which reflect on the entire college are normally taken seriously within the college So it is with the division of business at LBC
According todivision chairman Dr Max Wellman, thequalityofa school'sbusiness graduates is an instant reflection on a school.
"Business is a very severe discipline," Wellman said, "It has to be that way,because ifit's not, itcan ruin a college in no time."
Wellman spoke with a sense of pride as he explained theplacement services which thedivisionprovidesand he talked of practicaltraining which ispart of the college's curriculum He said the division has written toover 700 companies concerning job placement for graduates and has received many replies inviting students to send resumes
Wellman stressed the importance ofjob placement because of the mindset ofbusiness majors.
"In business they're more vocational minded," he said "They're preparing for vocational careers Of course they want to be employed, so it's important for us to place people."
The division'splacement program is enhanced further by practical courses such as the senior levelcorporate financeclass
Through the Small Business InstituteProgram, three teams of students serve as consultantsforsmall businessfirms suffering problems
Wellman said, "The students are under the direction of professors who give clues and direct the program These students have a lotofknowledge thatthey can bring to bear and often it's too expensive forthe business to hire a professional."
The students gain the practical knowledge needed in one of the six different majors offered The division, which was formalized in 1977,now has 510 students
Freshman Pam Alford, an executivesecretarial science major from Independence, Ky., practices her typing. Executive secretarial science is one ofsix majors offered by the business division.
as majors, 163 asminors and graduated 65 students in the class of'82.
The majors include accounting, business administration and management, executive secretarial science, finance and two business education degrees in office processes and stenography. The division carried 12 full-time faculty members and
plans to add two more in 1982.
The practical courses, placement programs and future developments of thedepartment will hopefully continue being a sharp reflection on LBC.

April 26 wasno exception for business majors ofLiberty Baptist College Following the usual Monday morning chapel service,business majors gathered to listen to Owen Brad Butler, board chairman of Procter and Gamble
Despite media figures on the inflated economy, Butler spoke optimistically about theeconomy.
"Our economy istoday healthier thanit has been inatleastten years,"Butlersaid "We are now back toa foundation from which we cangrow."
The foundation, according to Butler, was builtontheactionsofFederal Reserve Commission head, Paul Volcker. Butler
cited Volcker as the reason theinflation rate has fallen.
The board chairman alsosaid the people of America have asked for "Reaganomics." He said Reagan has proposed "a course correction ineconomics."
Butler also answered pre-written questions from thebusiness students and addressed practical issues such as how to obtain a jobor what qualities companies look for when hiring.
"The keyishow close did youcome to using 100%of the mental and physical capabilities you had," said Butler
"I would urge you to let that bethe measure ofyourself," hesaid "The thing that has always driven me is not whetherI would get recognized, but whether 1 had done my job tothe best ofmy ability."
Butler's words showed a respect for the American economic system.
"Our ethic of individual responsibility for achievement, Ithink, gives us an unbeatable edge."

Instilling an abilityto communicate
1 heability tocommunicate isa necessity for a student planning a career.Thatis why the division of communications at LBC seeks todevelop that skill
According tochairman Dr DonGarlock, the division of communication, which includes English,journalism, drama, foreign language and speech,triesto"develop in a person theability tosend a message and have that message mean the same whenit gets tothe other person."
Garlock said the division must work to meet thatgoal intwo specific areas during the year.
"We need todevelop a strong outreach of the division which we have nothad before," Garlock said. "We also need to develop a two-pronged program which will give students exposure indifferentareas."
The outreach ofthedivision was accomplished through theinitiation ofa debate and forensics team under the direction of new communications faculty member, Cecil Kramer The strong showing of the debate and forensics team accomplished much fortheschool,according toGarlock Another element which increased the outreach ofthedivision wasa weekly radio
program on WRVL which introduced various division faculty members topeoplein the community.

Stephan Wedan was added to thefaculty in the drama area Wedan, a former actor and play director, has helped improve the basic acting classes and has "turned around our basic acting program," according toGarlock.
Sharon Hahnlen began teaching French and Marilyn Nutter began teaching speech pathology,also in preparation for a future speech pathology program
A highlight ofthe 1981-82 year for the division according toGarlock wastheuse
of the New York Institute of Photography course inconjunction with the Basic News Photography class
The NewYork Institute ofPhotography is ahighly regardedprofessional school and for the first time the Institute permitted a school to teach the program Garlock said that was the first time any college was enabled todirect the class with itsownpersonnel.
Allofthesegoals, changes and additions will enable thedivision totrain Christian communicators who can effectively and clearly send out messages in whatever fieldthey work,because communication is a basic need inanyarea

Barlow enjoys various responsibilities
/Vfter 14 years in the ministry as a university pastor,Dr Daniel Barlow made the transition into education as a college professor
According to Barlow, the transition was not an easy one because ofhissuccess as a university pastor.
Barlow, originally from Elizabeth, Pa., said,"Asa university pastor,Iusually only worked with kids in the youth group and thiswas frustrating tome IfeltIwas only working with 5 percent of the youth, and that there were still95 percent that were not being reached. In teaching, 1 could bring Christian values to many more young people."
An important goal of Barlow's is "to help students see how faith and learning can be integrated in their lives."
Barlow looks for a real comitment to Christ ina student. Ifthestudent does not have that committment, he hopes to help the student move toward that goal Healso looks fora student who is "willing toreally give themselves to learning and acquiring knowledge." Lastly,he looks foran "ability to relate with other people."
A student who has these qualities, he
feels,willbe well-rounded spiritually, intellectually,and socially.He then hopes that "the student willbecome a person whowill make good Christ-centered decisions."
Barlow heard of Liberty Baptist College like many others, by watching Dr. Jerry Falwell on "The Old Time Gospel Hour" television program After watching the program forabout two years,Barlow graduallybecame interested He liked thefactthat Dr Falwell was solid in his doctrine and that he was trying tomake a differencein society.
Barlow then heard that LBC needed teachers in education, so he wrote to the school and was invited foran interview In the fallof 1978,he arrived on the campus ready to teach
Barlow's family supported him inhis decision to move. His wife, Wilma, teaches math and computer programming here at LBC. Histwosonsalsocame with him.The oldest, who is25, plans to enter medical school to become a neurosurgeon His younger son,21,isemployed with the Allied Security Company.
Barlow, who met his wife during ahalloween party at Franklin College, said,
"We always kid each other by saying that we thought the other one was wearing a mask." They dated all through college, then graduated and married on the same day
After his undergraduate work, he went to Colgate-Rochester Divinity School in Rochester, N.Y., and received a master of Divinity in Theology He also received a master ofarts ineducation with an emphasis on guidance and counseling Later he received a doctor of education from Arizona State.In 1975,he went totheUniversityofCincinnatiand didsome post-doctorate work in crisis intervention and mental health He also worked at Purdue University in the area of learning disabilities Barlow has served as a dean and associate dean of a college.
Barlow's lastfouryearson theLBC campus have notbeen idle ones.Aside fromhis regular teaching duties,he has also found time tobe involved inthetask ofwritinga textbook for the Education 311 class, Hu-
Barlow has been teachingat LBC forfouryears and has become accustomed toanswering people's questions through answering letters written toDr. Falwell.

man Development and Learning The tentativetitle ofthebook is"Educational Psychology: The Teaching-Learning Process." He describes writing thebook as "a pain and a joy."
On thepositive side, Barlow said that writing a book isajoy because "Ido want to share what the Lord has given me inthe area of knowledge The Lord hasput an urge in me to write I feel I have adefinite leading to write,andthat'swhat keeps me going when theobstacles getheavy." He also said, "LBC encourages its professors to write,andwhen you dowrite,youhope that itwillhelp the college to beseen ina better light and bring more credit to its name."
On the negative side,Barlow says noise and time are two pains to overcome in writingabook Barlow must have theabsolutequiet that he needs Barlow said, "The load that a faculty member hasthe privilegetocarry does notallow agreat amount oftime forwriting, especially if he is active in the community orin a christian service at church." Although hedoes do a small amount ofwriting during the school year, he does the bulk of his writing in the summer
Even with a full load ofclasses and the job of writing a textbook,Barlow still finds time to perform another service — that of answering many ofDr. Falwell'sletters.
After his first year ofteaching at LBC,
and not wanting tositaround all summer without anything todo,Barlow went toDr Ed Hindson and asked if heneeded help in the counseling center.Hedid not,but said that they did need someone to answer some of Dr Falwell's mail Hindson referred him toDr Falwell's administrative assistant and Dr. Barlow began hissummer job When the summer ended though, Barlow continued toanswer thelettersand has been doing sofor the lastthree years
He does notanswer theroutine letters He does answer those which contain special problems, such as theological questions,problem solving,orpeople who are upset about certain issues He says that thereareotherswho can answer theletters but that hereceives thebulk ofthem This service takes a lotoftime and extra work, butheenjoys it, because forone, he simply likes to write.
Another reason is that hefeels hisbackground enables himto approach the problems inthe lettersinaway that Dr.Falwell would want him to He also feels it "is a good way to really become involved and know what isgoing on inother aspectsof the ministry." Barlow feelsit broadens and deepens his view ofthe total ministry
Along with teaching, writingand answering letters, Barlow still manages to find time fora fewhobbies Hunting isafavorite hobby, and he hunts everything from rabbit to deer
The seashore isanother place ofenjoyment for him "1 can sitand watch the ocean for hours. Itshows me the majesty ofGod and the power of Hiscreation." The seashore,Barlow says,is alsoagood place to witness He isalso an oldrailroad buff and enjoys riding trains ormodel railroading.
Sports areanother area of interest to Barlow Heplayed football andbaseball in college and even hadan offer toplayfor the St. Louis Cardinals, which he turned down inorder togo toseminary.
Barlow definitely agrees with Dr.Falwell in his idea ofsuccess, which is, "Finding the willof Godasearly aspossible inlife, and staying init allof your life."Personally, he feels that success hasthree parts First of all,success is"finding yourself in thewillofGod." Secondly, "once you'rein the will ofGod, use whatever talents He's given you to achieve." And thirdly,"by achieving inthewill ofGod, that inturn can be used by theLord to reach other lives for Christ."
Barlow said, "Success isbeing happy about what youhave achieved inthe will of God."
Barlow's activity-filled life and unique opportunities asan LBCcollege professor have formed the ingredients forhis own success formula.

Success through involvement
Integration is the key to success," said Music Chairman Dave Randlett "Ihave to have both my family and my job My job has to have both church involvement and school involvement."
Dave Randlett was born and schooled in Pittsburgh,Pa He attended Boston University to obtain his bachelor's degree in music education with a concentration in voice Later, he went to grad school in Nashville,Tenn
While in Nashville, Randlett taught at Freewill Baptist College. During his eight yearsofteaching there,Professor Randlett was introduced to the college through the "Old Time Gospel Hour."
"I only came to visit some friends in Lynchburg I didn't want a job," declared Randlett,"but before I leftLynchburg the school had placed an application in my hands and told me to think aboutit."
The college was then initssecond year The result of being offered the application was that by the following fall he came to LBC to teach His first position was the Coordinator of the Division of Music Education
InJanuary,1974, Dave Randlett became thedirectorofthe "Old Time Gospel Hour" choir. In July of that same year, he was
named Chairman of the Division of Music.
"It hit me like an explosion, the way they emphasized thefamily,"said Profesor Randlett "I loved it It was so positive and helpful to me My family is like the melody and my job is just the harmony that aids incarrying it along with ease and beauty."
Dave Randlett is a family man who interweaves hisfamily and hisjob together. He lovesteaching music,buta weekend atthe beach or lakewith hisfamily has the same satisfyingenjoyment ashis jobofteaching Randlett's philosophy of music is that it ought toachieve artistic excellence,but it should alsocommunicate something tothe listener "If it's church music,it should not lose itsministry at the expense ofartistic excellence."
Dave Randlett teaches seniormusic education classes, three church music classes and an internship inchurch music besides directing the "Old Time Gospel Hour" choir and spending at least 10-12 hours a week conducting the Sounds of Liberty. Randlett stated thattobe restricted to just teachingortobe restrictedto just functioning in the church's music department would leave him half empty To Dave Randlett his work at the school and his
work atthechurch areeach likehalfnotes ina four/fourmeasure;they areboth needed to make itcomplete
As Division of Music Chairman, Randlett's duties include faculty development and recruiting, curriculum development, budget and finance development and overseeing everyday operations. He also is involved in some committees
The future holds a stronger music department and, someday, a doctorate degree for Professor Randlett. He hopes to receive a degree in post secondary education of music
Randlett wants tostrengthen the department by improving the string program, becoming accredited by the NationalAssociation of Schools of Music and by updating the curriculum
"I'm contented," said Randlett, "I have both my family and my job. My jobentails both teaching at the college and ministering at the church I'm happy I'm successful."

Pride in a growing program
w.e have the highest qualified faculty," boasted Division ofMusic Chairman Dave Randlett, "andaregraduating thehighest caliber of music students of any other school inthe nation."
Liberty Baptist College began their music program with just a choral program Later, in 1973, theband and theconcert choir were implemented Thefallof 1976 ushered themarching band onto thescene.
The string program and the orchestra fiddled their way into existence in 1979and 1980
The firsttwo years of the music department were spent intwodilapidated buildings. The next two years, they inhabited two tiny buildings across from Thomas Road Baptist Church and theTRBC choir room Recitals had tobe held outside Finally,in 1975,the music department was
moved to the mountain. However, they had to have voice and piano classes in the old farm house fortwo years beforethe present Fine Arts Hall wasconstructed
The music department only had four professors when itwasfirst implemented Now, there are 14 full-time teachers, all with a specific expertise and all highly qualified
"We've grown a lot in the past 11 years," said Randlett "It'stime we sat back and reflected upon how to improve what wepresently have toitsfullest potential rather than toexpand constantly."
The division ischanging, but not ina major way.A new divisionisbeing formed, The Division of Fine Arts, which will encompass thepresent DivisionofMusic and parts of the Division of Communication. Although the new division brings slight changes instructure,itwillnot change the high priority put onstriving forexcellence that has been somuch a partofthe music program since the beginning

Teacher accreditation challenged
1 he LBC biology program gained avictory inthe quest for teacher accreditation in thestateofVirginia on April8, 1982, when an 8-1 vote by a State Department ofEducation committee recommended the program for accreditation
But on May 21, a second committeerejected the program to further hinder the accreditation process
The problem, according to William Jones of James Madison University, who was the lone dissenter inthe firstcommittee vote,was a phrase in the LBC catalog under the list ofobjectivesforthe study of science Jones pointed out the phrase "to show the scientific basis for Biblicalcreationism" as being "dogmatic" and violat-
ing the principles of academic freedom.
Dr. Terry Weaver, the LBC biology department chairman, Russell Fitzgerald, academic dean, and Garth Runion, chairman ofthedivisionofeducation,appeared before the committee during the evaluation of the program. Weaver argued that both creation and evolution are presented in the classroom at LBC because colleges would become "intellectually confining" unless they exposed students to both views.
"It's the only honest way to teach science," Weaver said. "The whole idea of college isto examine and compare different ideas It'san open forum."
State accreditation would enable LBC
graduates to teach biology in the state of Virginia and 30 other states
The American Civil Liberties Union presented itscase before the second committee which voted down the proposal.
Weaver said,"The general nature ofthe ACLU's concern was that students graduating from LBC will all have a particular view on creation State licensing of such graduates would be paramount to establishing religion in the public schools."
Weaver said accreditation will continue to be pursued The issue was togo before the State Board of Education during the summer of 1882

H e no longer gambles on eternity
It wasa terriblefearofhellthat resulted in the salvation ofJesse Odell Grooms Once he wassaved,hecould notbear theideaof other people having to go there He said the fact ofpeople perishing was thegreatest motivating factor that led him to be a soulwinner.Although theGospel seems to continually flow from him now, his mind was not always on spiritual matters
Grooms was born in Fairview, Texas, and raised in Arizona, Whitton and Odon, Texas,by a godly mother.She was a born-
again Christian,yethedidnotbecome one until later in life.
"The reason she never questioned me about being saved isbecause shehad such convictions and was such a God-fearing woman, that Ilived a fairly good moral life in her presence," Grooms said
Six months after Grooms married, he came into contact with an athiest whoinfluenced him to become a professional gambler. He attended the funeral of his first cousin, AVi years later, where the reali-
ty ofeternity, in view of theevents of his past,brought him under deep convictionof his need forsalvation
At the funeral, "the chaplain said, 'he looked up in my face just before he died and said, 'Iknow Iam prepared and ready to meet my Master.'God spoke tome and

he said, 'J.O willyou dieaChristian orwill you dieagambler?'AndI said,I know my mother isa Christian so I'll diea Christian," Grooms remembered.
He began searching forGod at that point inhislife, knowing that hewas lostbut not knowing how to be saved because there was no one to explain salvation to him. Week after week he visited churches of various denominations
After visiting one such church at the invitation ofa Sunday school teacher, the pastor visited him and shared Scripture with himabout howtobesaved. Thepastor left him some literature to ponder. Grooms came to theconclusion thatthe message of salvation wastrue,despiteits
simplicity, and he returned tothechurch the following Sunday and gotsaved
Grooms grew in the Lord rapidly When he was 4-years-old inthe Lord,afterschooling,hepastored his first church in Dallas, Texas. He pastored churches fora while and then went intofull-timeChristian evangelism for three years before joining the Thomas Road Baptist Church staff.
While on a crusade in Independence, Mo., hemetDr Jerry Falwell for thefirst time Falwell had been preaching in Kansas City They met again a few months later and Falwell invited him tojointhe staff ofThomas Road Baptist Church.
"He told me that I wasthe only man he knew of that had a scripture memorization program coupled with a soulwinning program," Grooms said.
Grooms joined the staff in 1970 and stayed until 1973.Atthat time hepursued full-time evangelism once again until 1977 when he rejoined the TRBC staff
Throughout his Christian life Grooms has been anavid soulwinner Within three months of hisconversion he started winning people toChrist
"From thevery day that IgotsavedI had a red hot,burning desire towin people
to Christ," hesaid.
Grooms attributes this burden for the lost toa vision of hell he had beforehis salvation.Asa young man, heworked in a neon sign factory which hada furnace. A fellow worker likened ittowhat hell must be like and Grooms took it as a warning from God.
Along with his burden for souls,J.O Grooms also has a method "The secretis studying theBible and witnessing all the time Youcanstudy the Bible allthe time but unless you're witnessing and using the Bible, it doesn't mean very much to you because you're not finding the application and outlet forwhich you're studying."
Not only does he practice soulwinning himself,healso disciples others onhow to be soulwinners Twice aweek he teachesa class oftelephone evangelism studentsin which, motivated by his testimony and past experiences, he demonstrates practical soulwinning techniques over the telephone.
J.O. Grooms is walking proof thatGod can salvage alife and make it effective and useful for his service.

First politicalconference seeks to inform
Vlrateful for a break from the routineof classes,students at Liberty Baptist College faced the "Understanding Politics Conference" with understandable uncertainty since this was the first time such a conference was held at LBC.
The history of the college isa parade of many first's with the political conference held on thecampus February 8 and 9, being one of the most recent additions
The conference was sponsored by the Division ofSocial Sciences of the college for the purpose ofinforming students on the workings ofthe political system.Dr. Jerry Falwell, Dr. A. Pierre Guillermin, and Boyd Rist,Chairman of the Division of So-
cial Sciences, served as conference hosts.
Republican Senator from Colorado, Bill Armstrong, stated inafeature address that "the idea that Western civilization is heading toward a collapse is suprisingly prevalent in high level offices."
As encouragement to students to become involved in the political arena, Senator Armstrong said, "Christians bring moral absolutes tothe political process. This country cannot survive as a nation with a relative moral standard."
Conference activities also included various workshops M Stanton Evans, columnist for the "Los Angeles Times" Syndicate, spoke inone such meeting on the
"Philosophical Basis for American Politics."
Evans warned of "people in seats of power who are committed believers in secular humanism They want to impose their theology on the rest of us They don't want Biblical competition."
Evans expressed that those secular humanists who heavily criticize theMoral Majority and similar organizations for involvement in politics, and accuse the "new

right" of wanting to "Christianize America" are hypocritical "It's the secular humanists who arethetheocrats, trying to impose their beliefs on others," Evans said.
Evans reminded those attending, "The state does notexist outside ofthe providence ofGod." He encouraged Christians to be informed andgetinvolved
The list ofspeakers included other dignitaries, such as:Dr.Robert Billings, Special Assistant totheSecretary of theDepartment of Education; Richard Dingman, Executive Director oftheRepublican Study Committee of the U.S House of Representatives;John T Dolan,National Chairman of the National Conservative Foundation; Wyatt Durrette, attorney, and formerRepublican candidate for Virginia Attorney General; MaxGraeber, Dean ofUniversity College, University of Richmond, and politicalconsultant;Michael Horowitz,Counseltothe DirectoroftheOfficeof Management and Budget; and attorney John Whitehead, special constitutional consul-
tant to theCenter forLaw and Religious Freedom ofthe Christian Legal Society.
The highlight of the conference was the featured address bythe former PolishAmbassador Romuald Spasowski and his wife, Wanda. Inhis first public speech afterresigningfrom his post with SocialistPoland, he challenged and encouraged thehearts of students andfaculty ashepledgedhis allegience tofreedom Spasowski reminded students, "Thetime will come in the not-too-distant future when inyour hands, inyour minds and heartsthedestiny of this great country will be shaped."
According to Boyd Rist, conference host, severalhundred hours went into planning the "Understanding Politics Conference." Preparations began lateinthe summer of 1981 and continued through the fall and into the new year with the final arrangements being made just before thebeginning ofthe conference
Rist stated the purpose of theconference was, "To givestudents, faculty members andguests a philosophical basiswhy
Christians should be involved inpolitics, and acquaint the same people with the conservative political tradition." Ristexplained that the "Understanding Politics Conference" was designed to present a "broad pictureon avarietyofissues" from a conservative viewpoint Through the workshop sessions, students were given information on where and how toget involved inthe political realm.
According to Rist,plans are being made for future political seminars, butthereis "no specific form asof yet."
Though students entered the first political conference uncertain andcurious they emerged with valuable information and were challenged tobe more involved citizens.

Bricky returns inAirtime
Brmcky II was the main feature in the 1982 edition of Airtime sponsored by Student Affairs Bricky II, alias Dean Ed Dobson, returned to the ring this year for the first time since 1980 when Rocky I was popular Since thereturn ofRocky II tothe theatres, Bricky IIhas also been in great demand
Bricky originated as one of the Airtime features back in the 1979-80 school year He entered the ring amidst reporters, photographers and security people who were there for his protection
He was introduced to the crowd of fans through a slidepresentation of histraining career The slideswere shot mainly on the streets of downtown Lynchburg, and featured Dean Dobson "jogging"up the steps on Church Street and training at the meat market.
Almost 100 people were involved inthe first Bricky prizefight, including those who wrotethescript, thephotographers, security people and the reporters
According to Dan Henderson, Bricky II was not as difficult to organize and perform because itwas a repeat of Bricky I Only about 20 people were involved in this year's production.
The whole Airtime program was started by Dan Henderson in 1977 as a campaign tactic.
"Itwas just a crazy idea that I had fora
Bricky speaks with confidence about his upcoming fight with thechallenger as he is interviewedby Howard Cosell(JimStanley).
campaign when Iwas running for student body president," Henderson said
The first Airtime featured Henderson himself as the presidential candidate. In the production, he pulled up in a Rolls Royce, became the target of an assasination attempt and was asked rigged questions by reporters. Henderson's "crazy idea"resulted inhis electiontothe Student Government office
Dean of Students Ed Dobson,was often featured in later Airtimes Some of his prominent roleswere President ofthe United States,an Irish cop in New York City, Chief Scaredy Pants, the White Shadow and a contestant on the game show "Let's Make A Deal" in which he actually won a sports car which the students had builtfor him
Dobson was surprised when he was asked to appear once again as Bricky.
"I thought we'd buried him the first time," he said As to appearing in future Airtimes,Dobson replied with a grin,"I'm getting too old for that stuff."
The 1982 Airtime also included a wet weather fashion show hosted by Diane Crider, and a hair tonic demonstration featuring Dean Dane Emerick and Les Long, Assistant Dean of Men
The purpose of this year's Airtime was "mainly justtoencourage thestudentsand to give the Student Affairs staffan opportunity to promote a positive image," Henderson said "The crowd seemed to like it realwell. They enjoyed seeing thedeansin a different type of setting."

Progressive changes
•Starting inthefall of1982,the television, radio andfilmdepartment will have a new name; the department of telecommunications Along with the name will come many new opportunities for majors and minors alike During 1981-82,the telecommunications department, under the directionofDr Carl Windsor,had an enrollment of 155,which was larger than atany other Christian college The department planned toofferfivemajors and three minors in the fall of1982
The department had several practice rooms, its own campus radio station, WLBU, and was also heavily involved with WRVL On the television side,the department had three television cameras (three color), new editing equipment and a control room.
Before Dr. Windsor came,inthe summer of 1979,things were much different Senior Craig Hamm recalls, "When Istarted here at LBC in 1978,we basically had no facilities We only had one radio practice room and twooldblack and white TV cameras Not only did we not have our own classrooms,butour professors didn't even have offices On-the-air experience as far as radio goes, was non-existent Now,not only is thereWLBU, butjuniorsand seniors can work at WRVL Ifeel that Ihave re-
ceived a great education, and Iam happy God led me here."
Lisa Landrey, a freshman from Vincennes, Ind., was also excited about the telecommunications department As she put it, "Before I came here I had notraining whatsoever in radio Now, because of my classes and WLBU, I'll be working at WBRG inMadison Heights Ifeel that both the academics and the practicum of our department aretops and I'm excited about finishing out here and going on to what God has for me to do."
Another freshman, Jay Madas, also liked working atWLBU Jay said,"Youget a lot ofexperience atWLBU forlaterin life, but it'salso fun.Ican't wait for next year and the things we have planned for the station."
The department of telecommunications also had two placement programs forseniors who graduated from the department. They had an internship program in which students worked in theirfieldwith astation in their home area LBC also had seven students working at WSET television, Channel 13,in Lynchburg.
The department also placed seniors through the International Religious Broadcasters. LBC had the largest membership of any school in the IRB with 70 students
involved The IRB had itsown jobreferral service for its members and many LBC students found employment through this service
The department also has a wide variety of plans for itsfuture. There are plansto upgrade and expand its television program, both in equipment and infacilities Also intheworks areplans tomake WLBU an on-the-air,fullyoperational radiostation with itsown low-frequency FM band.This would give students more actualon-the-air experience than isnow possible
In a world with a population numbering 4.5 billion people, and growing daily, it is obvious that qualified Christians areneeded inboth radio and television if thisworld isto be reached forChrist The television, radio and film department isworking hard to meet that need
The TVRF Division givesstudentsnot only hands-on experience, but also a chance to 'star' in front of the camera as well. Here Jonathan Pauladjusts the cam-

1 or a young man 21-years-old, Rocky Erickson hasset high goals.Oneofthose goals is to become a household name among station owners when they thinkof covering sports.
"When a Christian station owner thinks offirst class sportsinformation I wanthim to think ofRocky Erickson," hesaid.
Born and raised in Montana, Erickson first started sportscasting inhis junioryear ofhigh school as a play-by-play announcer and a color commentator for over 50 games on seven radiostations
After graduation from high school, Erickson wanted toenroll ina broadcasting school inMinneapolis,Minnesota, or to attend Biola University in California.But the OldTime Gospel Hour program anda friend influenced him tocome toLiberty Baptist College for one year.
"I liked ithere somuch that I've come back every year since then," Erickson said
Erickson stated that everything he did whileatLBChas helped him inpreparation for thefield ofChristian Broadcasting.
"The TVRF program is fantastic with the OldTime Gospel Hour andthe Lynchburg Cablevision towork with in television, and WRVL Radio Station and intra-campus station WLBU.
"LBC has more opportunities toputexperienceon aresume than most colleges in the U.S.," hesaid
Erickson stated that experience is more important than thebooks, butthe books are needed for experiepce.Some of Erickson's experience hasbeen inthefieldof television as well as in radio
"I'vedone justas much intelevisionas I have inradio,"Erickson said "Eventually, though, Iwant togo intotelevision."
Erickson, one of themain announcers forthe Flame's Sports Network,carriedon five radio stations, was the color commentator for all Liberty Baptist football and basketball games.Healso produced a bi-weekly sports show on WRVL-FM and a daily sportsshow onWLBU-AM along with presenting a ten-minute "Rocky Erickson pre-game show" forallbasketball broadcasts
When itcomes to television, Erickson did three seasons ofplay-by-play forLiberty Baptist basketball and two seasons of football over Lynchburg Cablevision. He 200/Seniors
alsoannounced acollegefootballgame for Mobile Video Productions ofRoanoke, Va. Dedication and desire aretwo mainingredients needed to besuccessful,according toErickson
"It's also good to have some kind of edge, something you think you do better than others," Erickson added
Erickson said he felt he was more prepared than most announcers because of his ability tospeak quickly and still keep good tone and pronounciation Hehas also prepared wellthrough hiseducation Erickson will graduate with a Bachelor ofScience degree intelevision and radio anda minor inBusiness Administration whichhe feels will serve as a compliment tohis background and futureinbroadcasting and
sales
"Sportscasting isvery competitive You have tostartsmalland work up,"Erickson said."My main goal istowork for a large network and bring quality sports information into Christian broadcasting
"We need more quality Christian broadcasting tomake an impact on the secular world,andIwant todomy part in making that happen."

Richardson sellsfirst film script
Whil e the attitudeof professionalism in a field ofstudy isnotuncommon to studentsatLBC,therealityofprofessional experience is, for many, something to be dreamed offor the future
While this may be true, one LBC student, Karen Richardson achieved professionalattentionwhen she sold herfirst film script. Things goteven better for Karen over Christmas break as shewasableto see that film produced. Also, three other LBC students achieved their first professional experience in acting by playingthe lead roles inKaren's film
The film entitled, "Rock — It'sYour Decision" wasproduced by Olive's Films in Huntsville, Ala
According toKaren,a littleover a year ago she was contacted by Dr Suhail Hanna, professor of English, to write a scriptforadramatic filmdealing with rock music from a Christian perspective.Karen accepted thejob and was contacted by Olive's Films,a Christian film production company.They gave herthespecifications for thefilm and, with thego ahead,she began her research which started during Christmas break in 1980 whileather home in Richmond.
"I found several good books on rock music from a Christian perspective and spent hours in record shops copyingrecord titles,"Karen said. "I also contacted friendsofmine who listentorock musicto gettheirimpressions."She also conducted surveys in record shops and shopping
malls
Although Karen,as a student at thecollege,has heard many ofthe objectionsto rock music, she attempted to keep the script asobjective aspossible
"Iknew nothing about rock music," she said "Ihave never enjoyed listening toit; I mostly like easy listening and classical And,although I knew the mindset thatproducers were looking for, Ididn't worryif my information was going to back what they wanted.I was going tofindout whatit was inlightofScripture, andletthe individuals make the decision."
Inconsidering how thisachievementfits into hergoals forthefuture, Karen said that shefelt all along theLord hadgiven her the talent to write.
Karen didn't seehertalent at first and even hadtrouble deciding on a major.
"Ittook me two-and-one-half years to decide to major in English," she said."I had freshman English teachers telling me that they wished all theirstudentswrote aswell as I It was then that Irealized that Ihad a giftIhadto cultivate, although Ihadbeen writing since Iwasa child.
"Ihave been directed andchallengedto writeforGod's glory and not formy own," she said "Dr Hanna, Dr Kronmeyer, and Dr Brinkley have been my main motivators."
Karen also cites her interest in drama and Dr. Don Garlock'sinstruction in directing as helping her greatly in writing the film She feels these two factors have helped hertoseetheaction through the "minds eye."
Karen consulted the producers of the
film on thepossibility of casting itfrom LBC students and informed them that therewas agreatdealoftalentand interest atthecollege. Thisproved tobe true, as on the dayofthe auditions over 40 students participated, and fourofthe cast members were chosen from theLBCgroup.
"I have never been soproud ofmy fellow students," Karen said. "Iwassosurprised tosee so much talent."Apparently, theproducers were alsosurprised and said they were going tocome to LBCfrom now on tocast theirfilms
Those chosen toact inthe film were Ty Taylor, Laura Branscum and Glenn Williams, alldrama majors, along with Stephen Wedan, instructor ofdrama
Karen wasalso present on the set, taking parts asan extra inaddition tobeing availabletothedirectorsand producersfor re-writing parts of the script She commented that she has learned how costly these re-writes canbe and how toaccept the director's changes inher script Karen was very protective ofherwork and was somewhat defensive about thedirector's editing "And yet,"she said,"another part ofme knew itwas necessary.I was pleased with their interpretations."
When asked whether they would take on another film in the future, the response was unanimous, "In a minute!" they said Apparently Karen has already been given an idea foranother script forOlive's Films.After her graduation Karen will continue her education andshe hopes toeventually teach ina Christian college
KarenRichardson discusses herscript with Dr. Don Garlock, chairman ofthedivision ofcommunications.

Jame s Garner: husband student and actor
If you watch a production in which James Garner has been involved, itis hard to imagine that his acting did not come easily
"Acting has always been hard for me because I have always been terribleat fibbing,"Garner said,"Icouldn't even keep a straight face during a joke."
Garner, 22, was born and raised in Greensboro, N.C. After graduation from high school,Garner planned to attend the University of North Carolina at Greensboro But beforehe went,he met a girl that attended LBC and she informed him about LBC's King's Players and invited him to a College-For-A-Weekend. Garner visited LBC and changed hisplans because ofthe students and the Christian atmosphere
Besides his plans,Garner also changed his major three times before he settled on drama
Garner's firstacting role was at the age of 17.He played Mr. Shummy, the village idiot, in"Dark ofthe Moon." The roleconsisted of 12 words, but Garner soon realized "there was no such thing as a small part."
Garner's first role at Liberty was King Charles VII in "Saint Joan." His favorite role was Mr Higgins in "My Fair Lady." Garner remembers it as a "flowing role" and "theappex ofall parts."He has participated in approximately 25 plays since coming toLBC In 1977, Garner met Robyn Buchanan through the King's Players In 1980, they were married. Acting soon fell into his line of priorities along with working, studying and marriage
"Robyn is not only a great actress," James said,"but also a great wife.She is an inspiration tome because inevery play I'm inthere isa time when I get depressed and she is always theretorebuild my confidence
"Once a year I decide toquit I begin to wonder,'Is it reallyworth all thehassles?'"
Garner adds "Once a year I get a part the sizeof Captain Von Trapp and it just eats
at you. You come to practice for weeks and you feellike atevery practiceyoujust get worse Then I feelI'm not meant to be indrama,that I should get out and go into computer programming."
Robyn describes James as sensitive and humble
"James is very humble,and sometimes 1 have to really build up his confidence and lethim know he can do it and he knows he can,"Robynsaid "James is very dedicated and sensitive to people and their ideas In most oftheplays,James draws himself so intoa character that it ishard tosnap him out of it.I think he loves drama so much because inorder to portray someone else, you really have tolook at yourselffirst."
Garner said through drama he has learned to communicate with and understand people and theirattitudesaboutlife. But through the development of his many characters,he has also learned about himself
"Drama ishard work You have to work hard to develop the character," Garner states "Itdoes not happen overnight,but it has made me aware of myself and helps me understand who James Garner really is."
Garner plans to continue affecting peoplethrough hisdramatic talent, whetherit is through acting or teaching.
"God has given me a talentand I think I should use it to help reproduce it inothers who want to develop their talent," Garner said "God has been good tome inthearea of acting, and ithas turned out to be an unexpected pleasure."
Garner has participated in approximately 25 plays whileat LBC. Here he performs as Mr. Higgins, his favorite role, in"My Fair Lady" which was presented in 1980.

Smith to exchange pitching for preaching
Apitcher and a preacher? Well, these are two words which describe Doug Smith.
Smith, from Plymouth, Mich., chose LBC because he felt that here he could both play baseball and be trained for the ministry Pitching for LBC has fulfilled his desire to play baseball To fulfillhisdesire of becoming a pastor, Smith majored in speech because he feltthat,"a pastor has the greatest message inthe world to share and asa speech major I willhave learnedto give the message in the most effective way."
In the fallof 1982, he plans to enrollin the Liberty Baptist Seminary to pursue a master of art's degree in Biblical Counseling
He then planstostartan "aggresive Baptist church that isa lighthousetotheworld and that will meet the needs of people around the world." This will include a home forunwed mothers,teenagealcoholics, drug addicts, an orphanage,aChristian school,a camp and other such outreaches.
"Ihave a burden towork with the young people of the day because Ifeel that parents are not doing the job they should," Smith said
Smith heard about Liberty for the first time from Dr Bob Jones 111 He wrote to Liberty, but was also interested in Bob Jones University and Tennessee Temple He received acallfrom LBC baseball coach Al Worthington, who expressed interestin him Smith then showed up on the campus of LBC in the fallof 1978.
Since then he has taken an activepart in collegelife.
He was president ofhissophomore class and Speaker of the Senate in his junior year He has also been a prayer leaderfor two and a half years Baseball has also been a major part of smith's four yearsat LBC
"1 play baseball because God gave me thetalentand tome itwould be a sinnotto use that talent for His glory," Smith said. "When I go outon thefield, I totallyrelease all of what Ihave and trust God for the results It really doesn't matter to me if I get hithard because I know thatGod's love isnot determined by how wellI do. But I go out there to give 100%, so when 1 finish I can be satisfied with me,because I have to live with me."
Smith says hismother was the one who really got him interested in baseball
"She would go outside and play catch with me and encourage me towork hardat it," he said
His parents were divorced when he was
young and his mother raised him Smith spoke highly of his mother saying, "She has always been my best friend She was the one who taught me to do what was right and to never give up at whatever I do."
Smith said his high school baseball coach also played an important role inhis life "He gave me a desire to give iteverything I had,and taught me that whatever I tried to do, to do itthe best."
A third influential person in Smith'slife has been LBC Coach Al Worthington. Smith says,"He hastaught me more about lifethan about baseball.Through him I've learned that there ismore to lifethan winning and more important in life is loving people." Smith continued, "He has taught me that ifIgive to people than they will give back to me. And nothing is worthwhile doing unless itisdone the best."
As Smith looks back over hisfour years
at LBC, he realizes the impact that LBC has had on hislife
"When 1came here, Iwas an arrogant, self-centered, immature kid," Smith said, "but through LBC, God has changed my life No longer are my feelings and desires as important as serving and glorifying God Liberty has made the impact on me to change my goals and priorities inlife."
Smith concluded, "If Ican go through life, and can look back and see where I made people happy and made people smile, 1will consider my lifea success."

/amazed!"
That was the way Dr. Harold Willmington described his reaction as he walked into class April 7 Itwas his 50th birthday and the students of the Institute had planned a surprise for him
After chapel, everyone hurried back to classand waited forhim.As he walked into the room, the lights were off When they came on everyone yelled, "SURPRISE!"
"I was totally unaware of what was going on," he commented afterwards "Even when Iopened the door and saw all the lightsoff, Ithought, 'Those crazy students have got the lightsoff.'"
After "Happy Birthday" was sung, Ricky Miller, classpresident,presented Dr. Willmington with a pewter cup Engraved on thecup was "Baptist gasoline"since he enjoys coffee so much.
Several special guests were on hand to express their congratulations and praise for his accomplishments
"He's a tremendous asset to thisministry, said LBC President A. Pierre Guillermin. He then presented Dr. Willmington
with a Lynchburg Jefferson Cup, a silver cup similartoone on displayatMonticello
Next, Dr Elmer Towns, dean of theLiberty Baptist Seminary spoke highly ofDr Willmington saying thatsomeday his name would be "named among Ironside, R.A Torrey and others."
Lastly Dr. Falwell mentioned the even greater work that Dr.Willmington was doing now as the dean of the Liberty Home Bible Institute which has approximately 12,000 students at present
Willmington was born April 7, 1932 in southern Illinois His family later moved to Mt. Vernon, III., where he graduated from high school. His next schooling was for a year and a half at Hannibal-LaGrange in Hannibal, Mo
While at LaGrange, he surrendered to the call to preach In June of 1952, he enrolled at the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago and graduated there in 1955
Hisfirstpastorate was ina small church in Griggsville,III During this time,he was completing his bachelor's degree at La Grange Upon completion, he enrolled at
DallasTheological Seminary While atDallas, he married Sue Ransom on April 15, 1961 A son Matthew, was born tothem in December of 1962.
At that time,he accepted the pastorate at Community Bible Church in Ohio for three years He then moved to Minneapolis,Minn.,where he assumed the pastorate of a rather large church Inthe late 1960s, he was pastoring a church inIndiana when a good friend,Elmer Towns,invited him to Lynchburg Baptist College to hold a series of meetings with the students.
What he did not know was that he was tomeet Dr. Jerry Falwell who had plansto start a Bible Institute. Dr. Falwell did indeed invitehim tostartthisparticular ministry After much prayer,he and hisfamily moved to Lynchburg in 1972
Thiswas thebeginning ofwhat is known today as the InstituteofBiblicalStudies In 1976, the Liberty Home Bible Institute,a home correspondence course, was begun At present,ithas an enrollment ofapproximately 12,000 students,one ofthe largest, ifnot the largest,of itskind in the world.

In 1981, the students of IBS were privileged tohave as theirtextbook, "Willmington's Guide to the Bible." The book itself weights 5'/4 pounds and has approximate ly one million words init.
"I began actually preparing this whileI was at the Dallas Theological Seminary in '58-59 Then itslowly dawned onmethat maybe Icould some day compile an allinclusive one-volume summary of the Bibleso I just kept adding to itand adding to itand when I came here,I continued working on itwhile Iwas working in the ministry."
It was completed in 1978 and by thefall of 1981, the book had been published by Tyndale House Publishers which has since printed 110,000 copies
1981 was anexciting year for the IBS students in another way also Inkeeping with Dr Falwell's vision ofone day having allthe schools onthe mountain, theInstituteheld classes on the mountain with the college and seminary for the first time
Classes had previously been held in the old sanctuary at the Thomas Road Baptist Church Various rooms adjacent to the sanctuary were also used for elective classes
Most of the students were pleased with the move. Gary Roy,a 1982 graduate from Tri-City Baptist Church inDurham, N.C. thought the move was profitable.
"We have access to the college library and to the college professors Wehave an
The Sweetheart banquet: A uniqueexperience
EJegant!
Unusual!
Those were just a couple ofthe comments made about this year's Institute Sweetheart banquet
Every other year, the Sweetheart banquet centersits program around the renewing of the wedding vows.The married couples renew their vows and the single peoplevow only tomarry inthe Lord.Approximately 200 people were on hand February 20 at Eagle Eyrie forthisspecial occasion. With the ladies in formals and the men in dress suits,they were treated almost royally as they arrived
opportunity toshow othersour program. A lot of whom didn't know weexisted. This will help us grow."
Dr Willmington sawmore advantages than disadvantages in the move
"We had more room as far as myoffice isconcerned and alittlemore privacy I'm glad I'm uphere where the students are
"The big advantage ofbeing here on the mountain ofcourse is thatthisis where the action is Ican go and visit the otherreligion professors and ofcourse that'swhatI enjoy doing," Willington said.
While on the mountain thisyear,another big step wasmade toward fulfilling the Great Commission inour day. Inchapel on Wednesday, April 28, Dr. Falwell announced the approval of Dr Willmington's request to establish anInternational Bible Center here inLynchburg. Dr.Willmington was appointed co-ordinator for that entire ministry
The Bible Center will have many, many aspects to it Just to mention a few: day and week long seminars for pastors will be held, a school to train directors for local church Bible Institutes, anda computerized Bible Program will be started.
From its beginning until now, the Bible Institute has been an exciting ministry and itappears that itwill continue to be so in thefuture,ifDr Willmington has any thing to dowith it

Don Baker graciously opened the car doorsand greeted theguests John Rundell then parked the cars for the couples as they came.
Everyone chatted over punch in the huge reception room. Photographs were taken of the couples with the giganticfireplace as the background.
Everyone then entered the candlelight room for dinner Sweetheart roses and red candles decorated the tables Atthe base of each candle were four tiny crossstitched pillows bearing the words, "Love Begins Here,"which was the theme forthe evening
After the meal, entertainment was provided bythe love songs of Fred Duncan. Donnie Cantwell, a graduate ofthe Institute, was the speaker for the evening.
Next came the highlight which everyone had been waiting for First,the single women repeated after Dr Willmington their vow to marry only in the Lord and were followed by the single menwho did the same The married couples were next After renewing their vows, they puckered up and kissed their mates!
Judy Forlano, planner and organizer of the banquet,then spoke briefly "Icouldn't have done it without the help of a lot of ladies," whom she then recognized with roses
The lovely evening was capped offas everyone enjoyed a piece ofthe six-tier wedding cake.
When asked what most impressed those attending,theexchanging ofthe vows kept coming up.
"It made you think back to the actual time it happened Itmade you think of the way lifewas then and the way itis now," said Dennis Roberts, a first semester student
One student stated that thisreally made him see the importance of his wife.
Of all the activities this year, this was one not soon to be forgotten

A s usual,the year passed quickly for most students.Once the second semester began, most weeks seemed insignificant except for those which involved assignments due or difficult exams.
Spring was slow in coming, but students took every opportunity for exercise when the warm weather finally arrived. Frisbees sailed on nearly every warm day and could almost be called a campus fad.The floating discs definitely had an impact on students as they provided an escape from the last strenuous weeks.
Dust-ridden tennis rackets emerged from the corner of closets and winter wardrobes could finally be packed away for good. Sunning also became a popular and relaxing past time as some students worked to get that all-important tan before they ventured home.
By the time mid-April rolled around, most students were counting down each day until May 15.
Winning seasons by the men's and women's track, Softball and baseball teams also gave the students something to cheer about.
Then, of course,final exams had an impact. But by that time, most students had their sights set on home, summer jobs, vacations,or perish the thought, summer school.These things normally overshadowed the late night weariness from studying due to the last-week pressure of attaining good grades.
Changes and constants,individuals and groups, athletics and academics allcombined to produce a year at LBC which made an enormous impact on us.
