As Thanksgiving time draws near people around the world
will be thanking God for the many things with which He has
blessed them. Some will be thanking him for food and clothing,
others for families and friends, and still others for the
many beauties which God has bestowed on their land.
:Have we really shown ouw appreciation for our homes, be
they house, apartment, or room; for food on tlYe table and
more on the shelf; for friends near and far?
Do you ever think of thanking God for medical care? Yes,
it may mean paying $10 for a most bitter tasting liquid; yet
it did cure the illness. Have you ever whispered a prayer of
thankfulness for those dirty dishes and dusty floors? There
are many millions in the world today who have not the dishes
nor the food which it takes to make them dirty. Although
many have the dust, they have not the floors for it to hide
nor the walls to form the corners which need cleaning.
Vve have good reason to be thankful for a ll of the above
here at Goshen College. But, are the things around us all that
we are thankful for? Let us hope the answer is NO! God has
given to us as Christians a much more precious gift, namely
his Son, Jesus Chris t. But, stop! Do we show our gratefulness
to God in this respect? 'Ne do only if we can' answer with a
yes the question: Are we reall y Christiah?
A true Christian is one who not only professes his faith, but
lives it. Christianity is not like a suit of crothing which, depending
upon the circumstances, may be put on or taken off.
It is a part of one's life that is apparent in everyday life.
Do you go to chapel and church, and upon leaving the
service leave behind all of the good inten'tions which ran
across your mind as you Ii tened? Chri stians are "doers" of
God' word, not only "hearers."
The Christian's life is to be a life of service to God and
fellowman. Let us express our thanks to God for his most
precious gift to us by doing all we can to further Christ's
kingdom and spread the word of God by showing the world
that we are God's children, not only in word, but also in deed.
The poet Annie Johnson Flint writes:
Christ has no hands but our hands to do I-lis work today;
He ha no fcet but our feet to lead men in His way;
He has no tongue but our tongues to tell men how He died;
He has no help but our help to bring them to His side.
We are the only Bible the careless world will read;
We are the sinner's gospel, we a re the sC9ffer's creed;
We a re the Lord's last message g i\'en in deed and wordWhat
if the line be crooked) \\ hat if the type i blurred?
What if our hands are busy with other work than His?
What if our feet are walking where sin's allurement is? -
V'hat if our tongues are speaking things Hi lips would spurn?
How can' we hope to help Him unless from His we learn?
• p
Campaigning is now over and so is much of the political
heat which accompanied the outstanding election of 1960.
Our newly elected president, Mr. Kennedy must now shift
his energies from campaigning to planning for the four important
years which lie ahead.
Some of us are pleased with the results of this election year
while others of us are disappointed. Your choice of candidates
is not the important item now. \Vhat is important is that we
be good citizens tri\'ing to help our goyernment in fulfilling
its tremendous task of meeting the needs of today's world.
Let \1 remembew M r. Kennedy in prayer as he prepares to
assume his duties and directs the affai rs of state.

While In high

Mennonite

who urged her
to go to a Baptist
Academy for her last year of
high school. Some of her teachers
there were Alumni of Goshen and
encouraged her to come here for
college.
When Paula finds free tlme she
likes to spend It reading. However
at college she must spend most of

By Stanley Friesen
I want cheerios! I want cheerios

our interpretation of the desperate

nations. which realize their economic
predicament for our aid.
We hear them excla.im. "We will
catch up with the West. Is it not

I
•
our right to be
equa l with
you?"
Our government
then proceeds
to grind
out a polley of
aid to these
coutries. where
we hear that a
truck is sent
Stanley Friesen t h r 0 ugh the
streets to pick
up the bodies of those who have
starved during the night. We extend
to them our mlUtary aid,
machines. medicine. greater educational
advantages, and show
them our technology. The Church
also recognized the needs and has
established hospitals, schools, experlmental
farms. In 1act, we
ha ve institutions unllmlted.
In the midst of all our efforts
we hear "We want more aid," ';We
must develop more rapidly," and
we hear Lwnumba say, "We will
take aid from anywhere, even
from Hell if there is a means of
communication with the devil." So
we see the Russians giving steel
mills, buUdlng hydro-electric projects,
financing Irrigation proJects,
and giving their technical assistance.
The world's going Communist,
and in our mad hysteria
we accelerate our present program
with its attitudes, of gaining their
friendship so as to be able to plant
our ba.ses and win their support
in the cold war. But for all our
benevolence we hear the Indians
remark Joyfully how they played
the Americans against the Russians
in financing another phase
of the current five year plan; or
that they recognlre the whea.t and
surpluses we give them is cheaper
to give than to keep. One sometimes
hears them say that the
reason we want to belp them is
to raise their standard of living
M> we can sell them more goods
and eventually enj0f a yet higher
standard of living ourselves. '!be
remark has been made that they
want our money, technology, and
machin~ preferably without us.
Why this attitude? Is It because
we expect a remuneraUon
for our efforts, such as bases and
support In the cold war? Why thI.s
attitude toward some of our m1s--
sions? Is it because they interpret
our mission institutions primarily
as contact points which we dangle
before them in their need for our
hospitals and schools, and entice
them to come to us so we can
preach Christianity to them with
the hope of increasing the Church
role? Or do these institutions exist
because we love people as human
beings? We establish these chan~
nels through which we can express
our love to them, and continue
to love them whether they
reject Christianity or not.
We as Christians have the
unique message and responsibility
to love where we are not first
loved and continue to love when
we experience no response or a
negative response to our love. This
is hard because, as humans, we
are interested in others as long
as we. will receive beneficial remunerations
for our efforts. Love
exists where we do not require a
beneficial response to continue to
love. Jesuo said, "By this shall all
men know that you are my disciples
if ye have love one to an-other."

LETTER to the E itor New York Pro Musica
Gives Old English Music Dear DIltor:
I wu moat Interested In the relUlU
of the pollUcal prefereru:e
.urvey Laken among G.O. student..
and pubUahed In the Record of
October 28, 1960. I wu encouraged
by the fact that only 92%
favored the RepubUcan ticket; In
my college days back: when the
Unbeatable one wu running In
1956, I belleve the figure was
IOmethlng lIk:e '95%,
Permit me to say, however, that
such l5sues as the "experience" of
the candidates, their "personalities"
or even "the Cathollc lasue"
were not the real rea501U for the
lop-sided vote for the Republicans.
Rather It Ia that most G.O. students

'Dear Editor,
At Lime5 students are confronted
with rather embarrassing scenes
when strolling through Our lounges,
la the Westlawn Lounge a publlc
lounge? From the present situation
one would hardly know what to
answer to that question .
I, along with many allies, feel
that the OC Romeos and Juliet..
ahould lind a more IUItable place
In which to act out their lines, If
this sort of melodrama must go
on at all. U Is a wonder that some
couples have not yet realized that
this "public lounge" Is to be used
by all.
I am not advocating an "antlcouples-
In-the-Iounge" campaign.
but am merely stating that actions
speak 10,llder than words. I hope
that a ll students help to remedy
this sltuaUon by thinking of others
and by making use of the lounges
for amall meetings and group
parties.

It would seem that some Goshen
Oollege students are IgnOring or
making light of the principle of
honesty. 'Rather than to lay such
a serious charge against some of
our fellow students. we would
merely like to ask: these quesUons.
Is It honest to return only onehaU
or seven-eighths of the money
earned during work days? Is It
honest to return none ot the
money earned? Is It honest to
take a two-day vacation without
any sense of obligation?

Dear Editor.
In the la8t lsaue of the Record.
In an arUcle headed Muso Amalemba
to Salute Kenya. It was
stated that Amalemba Is Kenya's
first and only African Minister.
May I emphatically state that
Amnlemba Is not the first and only
Afrlcnn Minister? The Ministers
for Commerce and Industry,
Health. Labor and Lands are all
Africans and the Assistant MinIster
for Agriculture Ia also an
African. May I fUrther be allowed
to state that the Africans have
always been reluctant to take up
ministerial posts Owing to the
acute Inadequate representation
In the government. It would be
wrong to assume that there were
not many suffiCiently educated
people In the country who would
have taken up such posts had
there been a JOint representation
of Africans Interested In the government
before Amalemba stepped
Into the picture.
Perhaps It might not be out of
the "!ay If I mention that Amalemba
was not elected by popular
vote, He was specially elected by
the government of Kenya.
I would further like to add that
I do not know what "mob-rule
and the big-stick methods of intimidation"
are which Amalemba
fights against In Kenya.
Dear Editor.
Sincerely your~.

Goshen's fired-up soccer team i)h;ayY;:======
gained a 3-3 tie with Calvin college
In a game played September
29. The tie marked the first successfUl
elIort In the college's three
years of intercollegiate soccer. The
Calvin team, which Is currently In
second place In the Big Ten, was
composed prhnarUy of th~ J -V's.
but there were several varsity
players who saw action,
Dick Hess booted In the initial
score of the contest in the first
quarter to give the Leafs a 1-0
lead. However I Ca.lvin tallied soon
after to knot the score at 1-1. cal\'
in took advantage of qoshen's
bunching up on their narrow field
and scored again In the second
quarter, making the score 2-1.
After the half. the Leafs really
came to lite and played a spir ited
and aggressive game. Calvin, however,
was a ble to tally again in
the third quarter on a penalty kick.
The fourth quarter was all Goshen.
Within a minute after the
Quarter started. Dick Hess. with
an excellent maneuver, faked out

the score 3-2 in favor of Calvin.
The Lea.fs continued to control
the ball throughout the final
Quarter but they were unable to

Roger Dun flashed by the
defending goalie and booted in the
final tally of the game to make the

The victory has inspired the team
tremendously. Let's show our enthusiasm
and support by getting
out to watch the final game on
Sat .. November 12 at 3 :00.
SPORTS INTEREST - I was
glad to see several students come
out and watch the tennis matches
this fall. Now the big spectator
sport is soccer and students come
out even though it may be cold
and windy. Along this same line.
I woUld like to remind you that

Miller as he carries the ball around right end. Ccming from
behind, the Juniors posted an 8-6 victory in the last few minutes
of play.
the big literary football game Is
coming up soon. It should be a
good game to watch.
FIGHTING TEAM-The soccer
team is really keyed up. They
have all been r----.."
practicing like
crazy . sin c e
they had theh'
first taste of
success. It is
pretty hard to
get guys to
maintain good
practices it
they steadily
lose (as our
soccer team Paul Day
has since it began). But these
guyS come out every school night
either to scrimmage or to run on
their own. Believe me, they are
really fighting for It victory this
season.
GOOD SIGN-<l woUld like to
mention something about the
game between the Varsity and the
Junior Varsity basketball teams
the other nJght. The Varsity won
by a 13 point margin but it was
closer in the first half. Both teams
looked llke teams and I think that
if they stay on that track we wUI
have a winning team this year.
Frosh Face Possi Ie League Tie
Frosh I has taken an early lead
in the intramural touch football
competition by posting three wins
in four games. The sophomores
battled to a 6-6 tie with the 'flrst
freshmen team to put them In
contention for a league tie.
The leading freshman team has
com~letcd its four game schedule
and anI}' the sophomores can spoil
their championship hopes. ThIs
second year team wUl have to meet
the juniors and seniors to finish
out their schedule.
FROSH 16, SOPHS 6-Dave
Gerber naUed Elliott Gerber on a
pass pJay that covered 60 yards to
give the sophomores the first six
points of the game. The freshmen
tied the score la .e In the contest
when Gerald Gross blocked a
sophomore punt in the end zane ,
and Karl Hertzler fell on it for
Ihe tally. ~
SOPHS 14, FROSH DO-Bob
Brunk pulled in a pass from Don
Chapman to start 01I the scorlng
fol' the second year men. Nann
Pfile scored the other six points later
In the game when he galloped
for a short run around end. The
two extra points were credited to
Roger Dunn who snagged a pass
from Chapman.
JUNIORS 8, FROSH 0 6-The
passing combination of Morris
Mast to Jim Hallman worked twiCe
to give the JunJors'a two-point win
over the second freshman team.
The one freshman touchdown
came on an intercepted pass.
FROSH I ZO, FROSH 0 O-Jhn
Schrock was on the receiving end
of three passes from Keith Hamsher
and accounted lor 14 of the
Frosh I points. Hamsher hit Les
Hartzler for the other TD.
FROSH I 30, SENIORS O-Hamsher
uncorked five TO passes
against the seniors, four of them
In the first half. He hit Herley
Miller for one, Linus Miller for two
and Jim Schrock for two.
FROSH I 30, JUNIORS O-The
rugged Frosh I team took care of
the juniors tn easy fashton , scoring
four times and adding thI;ee
extra points. Hamsher passed to
Herley Miller for the first tally,
hit Jhn Schrock on the second,
which covered 55 yards, hit Herley
Miller on the third, and psssed to
Schrock for the last one. Linus
Miller Tan over for two of the
points-after. and Herley MWer
snagged a pass for the other one.

Lea.f's put up a tough battle
throughout the game, but lost out
In the waning moments of the last
quarter when Tech took a two
point lead to win, 3-1.
The game was scoreless untU the
middle of the second quarter when
Tech sneaked the ball past goalie

who booted the ball through the
goal. The score was still tied at
half-time, 1-1.
The third quarter was a seesaw

Late In the quarter Tech scored
