HI TRINITY!...I'm your student newspaper!

After two months of being sweated over I've finally hit campus.

I know I don't look like those big, fancy dailies you're used to, nor even those glossy publications the administration puts out, but I hope to glorify God and serve our campus community as best I can with what I have.

My editor feels that I'm a worth-while endeavor, and he would like to see me become your news­paper. That means you should be part of what I am or what I become.

To be your newspaper I need your input and your concerns. If something in me, on campus, or in the community pleases or disturbs you, why not express yourself in me?

One thing though. If I'm to grow and develop, I'm certainly going to need more than the two poor souls who are putting me to­gether now. I need people with a bent towards business administration, publicity and advertising, and art and layout in addition to those who enjoy journalistic and editorial writing.

Such a group is necessary to make me the most effective ministry I can possibly be. I'd suggest that if you have any sort of inclin­ation toward me you contact my editor. (His name is Gerald May, incidently.)

Anyway, have a good day, and happy reading!

MIND

Morton the African Violet was placed in his new planter early in September, and immediately started to get acquainted with the other young shoots around him. Being a personable plant he had soon made a number of friends, and friends be­ing as they are, he was invited to get involved in some activities.

"Hey Mort!" they called, "we just found out about the new oppor­tunity in the planter, it's called,'sending out new shoots.' Want to get involved?"

"No, not right now. I think I'll wait until you guys have tried it, and if it turns out to be a good thing maybe then I'll give it a go . "

So, his friends went about sending out new shoots, while Mor­ton contemplated the moisture con­tent in his little section of theplanter.

A short while later a number of his now well sprouted friends for­warded another invitation.

"Morton, you old greeny, the gardener has invited us to develop buds. It'll be a challenging task, but if we really dig into the min­erals we should be able to develop some fairly nice ones. Want to get in on it?"

"Nah, I saw what a flop the buds were last week. I'm not sure I want to waste my chlorophyll on something that isn't, as yet, worth getting my phloem worked up about."

So, his friends began develop­ing handsome buds, leaving Morton to try to build up his single, solit­ary leaf.

by Gerald May

Having developed their buds to the full, Morton's acquaintances were considering blooming. "Should we ask Morton whether he would like to try too?" some asked.

"No," others said. "He'll only want to 'wait and see' anyway. Besides he's not developed enough to be able to participate."

Morton soon found himself amongst beautiful blooms, who, though friendly, had a hard time relating to his comparatively drab green shoot. Their fresh scents and lovely colours constantly reminded him of his stick- in-the-soil attitude of earlier weeks, and with the coming frost he realized it was almost too late to do anything about it. Poor, drab, undeveloped Morton!

How about if we try to keep Morton from popping-up in our planter?

That freshman girlso shy and coy,

Yearns for the ringof that sophomore boy.

That sophomore boy longs to make a pass,

Secretly in lovewith that junior lass.

That junior lassin her sports car flies,

Running around after senior guys.

But that senior guywith golden curls,

Longs for a date withthat freshman girl.

WAYS AND MEANS IS UNDERWAY

PROFILEThe Ways and Means Committee,

that group of hard working students responsible for raising additional funds for Student Council, is in high gear.

They have been busy making use of the $5,000 raised during last spring's Wam-a-thon. Our Senior Class project, the coffee house, "Ground Level," has been given a face lift with new decor, a stage for the use of local talent, and a stereo cassette system. Two new type writers have been purchased and placed in the library, and are available to students for over-night sign out (for those last minute papers!)

Fundraising started for this fall on Friday, October 31 and Satur­day, November 1 with car washes held on campus and in Langley. The $81 raised will go toward purchasing uniforms for the cheerleading squad.

Right now, the committee is preparing publicity brochures, and planning the first stages, for next spring's Work-a-thon, their major fund raising project.

John Oostra, chairman of Ways and Means, says of his committee,"This year we are looking for bigger and better things to happen as we broaden our horizons, not only in our own needs, but to those under­privileged in the community and over seas who need our outreach.

HOW DO YOU VIEW THE CHAPEL?by Lloyd Makaroff

Is a church service, a chapel service, a performance? Do you see the participants in the worship service similar to that of a celeb­rity series? Is this an opportunity for the "best" performers to do "their thing?" Is this the platform for the experts to teach and instruct the beginners?

Over the past several years I have come to appreciate the church being pictured as a family. Con­sequently I like to view the chapel service as a gathering of the family

Carey and Raylene Dueck are one of our married couples on cam­pus this year. Carey, a Junior, spent his first two years as a res­ident student. Since their marriage in Alberta five months ago they have moved on campus and Raylene has be­gun her freshman year. They kind­ly consented to share some of their experiences and views on being married students at Trinity.

The fact that they are both students, at the same school, has unique effects on their marriage. Their time spent together is great­er, and this allows them to relate to one another in a greater number of areas. They have also found that their circle of acquaintances is becoming one instead of a combina­tion of two.

But being a student involves more than just attending classes, the demands of study time require adjustments in their home life. Raylene and Carey enjoy working to­gether, so the duties of housework and school work plus the goal of establishing their home are viewed and approached as a joint effort.In a practical way, they see their housework responsibilities as a break from the routine of study, and in an economical way they find that food costs are lower for two than for one. Raylene and Carey still enjoy the sports and social events that are a part of the stu­dent life at Trinity.

Because they recognize that it would be easy to associate with just each other, they are working towards getting to know others on campus, in their classes, and through social activities.

When you see the Duecks around campus feel free to say hi and let them get to know you.

CHAPEL (Con't from page 3)in the family room. On occasion guests come to visit the family room and share some of their wis­dom, humour, and insights. But the family room is not primarily a place for outsiders but rather for the family members. This is the place where the family comes to­gether to enjoy one another's presence and to experience the unique pleasure that a close family can provide. It is with this image and background that I app­roach each chapel service.

Having a change of perspect­ive has given me greater enjoy­ment each time that we meet togeth­er. As in our own family I do not expect excellence or perfection at all times but rather I rejoice at seeing growth and progress. I love to hear of the other members sharing their victories, their burdens and concerns. As a father I particularly enjoy seeing love being demonstrated one toward another. This is just a miniature picture of God's heart when He says "be kind one to another tender­hearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you. Let no corrupt com­munication proceed out of your mouth but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace to the hearers." (Eph.4:9-32)

As we come together let us not come as spectators or critics but as family members. Let us come expecting, enjoying and en­couraging one another unto Godli­ness and true holiness.

INTELLECTUAL'S CORNERby Bryan Hermans

Perhaps the greatest crisis facing the average English speak­ing North American is the subtle degeneration of his language.

Grammarians tell us that lan­guage should be determined by the rules, but in reality we find that people speak, and write, as they feel.

This liberality in our use of language often gives us some bizarre results, which is evidenced in the following examples of accident re­ports published by Tilden, a Canad­ian car rental agency.1. "I collided with a stationary truck coming the other way."2. "A truck backed through my wind­shield into my wife's face."3. "A pedestrian hit me and went un­der my car."4. "The guy was all over the road;I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him."5. "I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in- law, and headed over the embankment."6. "In my attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone pole."7. "I had been shopping for plants all day and was on my way home. As I reached an intersection, a hedge sprang up, obscuring my vision. I did not see the other car."8. "I had been driving for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had the accident."9. "I was on my way to the doctor with rear-end trouble when my univ­ersal joint gave way causing me to have an accident."10."To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front, I struck the pedestrian."11. "My car was legally parked as it backed into the other vehicle.12."I was sure the old fellow would never make it to the other side of the road when I struck him."13."The pedestrian had no idea which direction to run, so I ran over him..."14."The telephone pole was approach­ing. I was attempting to swerve outof its way when it struck my front end."

IN THE SPORTING SPIRITJudson Prevails as Trinity's Nemesis

On the weekend of Oct­ober 24 & 25 the Trinity Spartan soccer team tra­

velled to Portland, Oregon. This being the last round

trip to Portland for the year Trinity had hoped to come with an unblemished winning

record against opposition on the road. However Judson proved to be a nemesis.

Trinity started the weekend with a solid performance against Concordia. The final result of the match was a 6-0 win. Paul Hermitte kept pace with his astounding scoring spree of pre­vious games with two goals. Brad Rob­ins added another two while Steve Smith and Gary Chandler contributed with one apiece. Another outstanding

by Brad Robinsperformance was given by Tim Brown who assisted on three goals. Kelly Ketchem, Trinity's goalkeeper, registered a hard earned shut-out.

On Saturday, October 25, Trin­ity met its first defeat against Portland opposition. Judson, a tall and very physical team intimi­dated the Trinity forwards, not allowing them to break free up the middle.

Though Trinity controlled much of the play, their inability to keep their shots low enough to force the Judson goalkeeper to make saves and the tenacity of the Judson attack eventually clinched the victory for Judson at 2-1.
