Summer uniforms, winter uni
forms, caps, boots and fatigues —
these are part of the general issue
given to each member of the Texas
A&M University Corps of Cadets.
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

Fred Taylor, using something called a cable drill,

Rock gives way to oil.
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.

sure there are some.

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...”

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
