Odessan Dies; Rites Slated UTPBSife Decision Was Good Choice AUSTJN (AP) Es-, tablishment of new colleges in Ector and Bexar counties turned out to be correct decisions, if distance was a primary consideration, says Dr. Ronald B. Geenens, director of the Business and Economic Research Division at Pan American College. Geenens' study was released by the College Coordinating Board. After completing a Texas demographic study some two years ago, the division was directed to develop a mileage matrix that would allocate students among the 22 state-supported institutions of" higher education.

One of the purposes of the project was to identify those counties in which the establishment of new colleges would reduce required student mileage the greatest amount. The researchers found that 1969-70 Texas high school graduates would have to travel 27,714,004 miles if each attended the nearest of 22 public four-year institutions. The one county which would reduce student mileage the greatest amount was Ector County. Establishment of a college in that county would reduce required student mileage by almost 2.5 million miles, according to the results of the study. The study further re-v a 1 that establishment of a college in adjacent Midland County would reduce the re quired student mileage by the second greatest amount, and Bexar County by the third greatest amount.

Minor violations of the annual cease-fires are usual, but this year only two Viet Cong attacks were reported in the first 12 hours of the day.

Both were against South Vietnamese positions, and one South Vietnamese was reported killed. In another troubled country, Poland, there was a word of cheer today after the new Communist party leader, Edward Gierek, promised the nation, still reeling after last week's riots over increases in the prices of food, that there will be a two-year freeze on food prices and that $300 million will be allocated to the needy in the form of subsidies and pensions. Sprits were low in West Berlin because for the fifth straight year, the East Germans were not opening the of the Berlin Wall to let Christmas visitors through. Some 800,000 East Germans have relatives in West Berlin. From 1963 to 1965, they opened the wall at Christmas to visiting West Berliners, but then they stopped.

They have indicated itihey will not welcome West Berlin visitors again until West Berlin recognizes the East German government, and the West Germans say they will not bow to blackmail. It was a brighter Christmas Eve in Paris, 20 per cent bright, because of Christmas lights. A total of 200,000 bulbs were strung along 70 streets; the Champs Elysees had 40,000 bulbs hanging on six miles of wire.

TOM STROTHER have been like "stumbling is the it is to have the smell of sin, our lostness and estrangement from self, neighbor, and God. To stand fear and trembling and face up to what you are and what you might be is like having a light invading your dark life.

Knowing that God has come to me, even unto me. Yes, we have all been smelly shepherds. We must be angels to our time. That is right, we must be angels. The angels were messengers of God.

To speak of Angels is a way of describing otherwise and indescribile experience in which we become aware of some eternal truth that God wants us to share. You may not look like and angel or feel like a saint, but you must be no less than an angel, a messenger of God to proclaim that God has made himself known, has shown us what it is to be a man, an man responding to the humanizing process. What will Christmas mean to you? Which celebration will take priority over your activities? Listen with ears of faith and you will be able to hear above the chaotic echo of confusion, above the roar of a troubled world, the voices singing, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men." Come on now people, you must be the messengers of God, declaring with Isaiah, "Gave courage, never tear; nere comes your God. comes to save you. To celebrate Christmas is to receive the visitation of God in the here and now, examining our sense of integrity, birthing meaning, and commiting our lives afresh to the Way, the Life, and the Truth that is found in this Jesus, whom in laith we dare call the Christ (the one from God).

Amid the birth pangs of the humanizing pro cess, it is to get it all together as the family of God and to know that like is good. So be it. Come, chnstmas 1970, we need you so much.

LUKE'S METHODIST CHURCH Christmas has come to mean many different things to a lot of people. In our culture we do notj have a Christmas; we have sev eral Christmases. These several Christmases overlap and have much in common. One celebration of Christmas has to do with buying and sell-t ing, and that is all right. We are in the midst of the great year-; merchandising campaign.

Christmas sales have much to do with the color of the ink used in the Ledgers of stores both large and small, isanta Claus has become the most valu able of all sales stimulation symbols, virtually the patron saint of merchandizing. Another celebration of Christ mas is a sort of festival of friendship. It is the season for a little serious maintenance of our friendships, especially those which are separated by dis tance. An over-lapping celebra tion of this festival has to do with family. A joyful family gathering is significant whether your famley be large or small.

or even if it consists of a tem-l porary "adopted" What does Christmas mean: It is many things. Not so much a look at the past, as a way to understand the present. For the story is of darkness and the coming of light. It is a story of Mary, Joeph, an innkeeper, smelly shepherds, and of angels coming to man. If to man, then to me.

The Christmas story is my story. Yes, my story, and if it is my story, then it is your story. Don't yo usee?
