This year, however, a bedspread has been added to the general issue. The new bedspreads were issued to give the rooms a uni form, military appearance. Col. James Woodall, Corps comman dant, said. The maroon ripcord bedspreads feature a white Uni versity seal in the center. They cost $20 each. “The idea (to issue bedspreads) started three years ago and three Corps staffs have approved it — it didn’t just happen,” explained Col. James Woodall, Corps com mandant. In past years, he said, cadets were issued old army blankets, but that practice stopped some time ago. Cadets started bringing their own blankets to school, he said, and the rooms have lacked a military appearance since then. After cadets approved the idea to issue bedspreads, Woodall said, funds had to be allocated to cover the cost of the 2,500 bedspreads worth over $40,000. Then the bedspreads themselves had to be ordered. In the Corps, freshmen and sophomores do not have the pri vilege of having bedspreads and other furnishings in their rooms. Therefore, while junior and senior cadets can enjoy the bedspreads as bedspreads, freshmen and sopho mores must use them as blankets. Juniors and seniors make their beds with the bedspread ends draping down. However, fresh man and sophomore cadets must make their beds in the correct military fashion: ends tucked under the head of the bed, with folds at 45-degree angles at the bottom. The beds also must have a Chinese Slippers Graceful comfort in Brown, Tan, ^burgandy , Blue, and Classic. &lacW.• IOO <7©cotton. * v isA- Vk 1 WHOLE EARTH | PROVISION COMPANY | 105 Boyett 846-8794 J Hire the best minds we can find, give them room to breathe, and see where they take us.

The first of the modern hydrocracking processes, developed by Socal researchers, is commercialized, providing an economic response to fuel oil demands for the next 20 years. Socal researchers come up with a naphtha reforming process called Rheniforming, which increases refinery capacity to produce unleaded gasolines. With construction and installation directed by Socal engineers, the largest offshore rig in history is settled in the turbulent North Atlantic. The central platform is IV2 times the height of the Great Pyramid, and the largest man-made object ever moved. 1982.

Jf Battalion | S Classifieds | jicall 845-261lfj an zone, hi at least: )e estat .to WHAT DOES GOD ENJOY? What pleases God? What is it, in this whole universe, that God desires and takes delight in? Most of us would consider that if a man was good, moral and religious that God would be pleased and satisfied with him. Let us consider for a moment such a man. This man was a real person, Saul of Tarsus, who lived nearly two thousand years ago. Saul was not a low person at all. In fact, he was one of the leading religious figures of his day. He loved the law of God artd lived by it scrupulously. He was zeal ous for the traditions of the Jews and was very strong to further and defend them. He was advancing in the Jew ish religion and was leading a fight to defend against what he perceived to be a perverting influence coming into Judaism. Surely, to our considera tion, such a man would be pleasing to God. Yet the very characteristics which would cause us to admire Saul brought him into direct conflict with what God was doing on the earth in his day. Then one day Saul of Tarsus had an experience which changed his whole life — he met the real, living Son of God. Before that revelation, Saul had been one steeped in the Jewish religion and in the traditions of his ancestors, but as a result of his experience, he realized that God has no care for any kind of religion. In stead, God was pleased to reveal to him the living Person of the Son of God. Toward us, in these days, the desire of God’s heart is still the same — to reveal His Son to us. It is Christ, the Son of God, not the law or religion in whom God the Father is always pleased. Actually, according to the whole Bible, only these two things are pleasing to God — the Person of Jesus Christ, His Son, and the revealing of His Son to us. Twice in the Gospel of Matthew, God the Father, speaking from the heavens, says, “This is My beloved Son, in Whom I delight.” (Matt. 3:17; 17:5) Then, in Galatians 1:15-16, the Apostle Paul, who was previously Saul of Tarsus, tells us that “it pleased God... to reveal His Son in me...” gious past as “loss” and ‘'die that he might pursue after and to' this wonderful Person. (PI Eph. 3:8; Phil. 3:7-14)Itisi Person that the heart of God is M* occupied. God’s unique intention to give His Son to us, to reveal Son in us that we may know He receive Him as our life (John ft 3:16), and become the sons of ft* (John 1:12; Gal. 4:5-6) with the^ vine life and nature (II Pet. \i John 5:11-12). According to the Bible, the Son of God is a truly marvelous Person. He is the embodiment and expression of God the Father (John 1:18; 14:9-11; Heb. 1:3), the mystery of God (Col. 2:2), and the One in whom all the fullness of the Godhead dwells bodi ly (Col. 1:19; 2:9). If we want to know God, we must know Christ, because Christ is the declaration of God (John 1:18). God is real and living, but as the Father He is mys terious and hidden. The Son of God is God revealed, God made available to man. In Hebrews 1:3, Christ is called the effulgence of God’s glory. Just as light is the effulgence of the glory of electricity, which cannot be seen, so Christ is the effulgence of the glory of the invisible God. It is no wonder then that Paul de clared “the excellencies of the knowledge of Christ” and preached “the unsearchable riches of Christ as the gospel,” counting all of his reli- To be a Christian is to be one#!> is fully occupied with this livid?^ son, not with any kind of religi* Religion, with all of its traditioni an invention of man.
